Question

factorise 54.5
.......
.............

Answer 1

Reduce (simplify) fractions to their lowest terms equivalents:

Fraction: 1/2 already reduced to lowest terms, numerator and denominator have no common prime factors, their prime factorization:

1 cannot be prime factorized and 2 is a prime number;

Rewrite result:

- 55 + 1/2 = ( - 55 * 2)/2 + 1/2 = ( - 55 * 2 + 1)/2 = - 109/2 as an improper fraction.

- 109 ÷ 2 = - 54 and remainder = - 1 =>

- 109/2 = ( - 54 * 2 - 1) / 2 = - 54 - 1/2 = - 54 1/2 as a mixed number (also called a mixed fraction).

- 54 - 1 ÷ 2 = - 54.5 as a decimal number.
