3.04 = 3.04
1
Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point:

= (3.04 × 100)
(1 × 100)
= 304
100
.
Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the above fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) between them. In this case, GCD(304,100) = 4. So,
(304÷4)
(100÷4)
= 76
25
when reduced to the simplest form.
