Hi ,

18.48 is a terminating decimal form of

a rational number.

18.48 = 18.48 × ( 100 / 100 )

= 1848 / 100


Find HCF of 1848 and 100

1848 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 7 × 11

100 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 5

HCF ( 1848 , 100 ) = 2 × 2 = 4

1848 / 100 = ( 1848 / 4 ) / ( 100 / 4 )

= 462 / 25

Therefore ,

18.48 = 462 / 25

I hope this helps you.
