5. To write a terminating decimal as a fraction, identify the place value of the digit farthest to the right. Then write all of the digits after the decimal point as the numerator with the place value as the denominator.

6. 7 is in the hundredths place, so write hundredths as the denominator.
For Example
Write each decimal as a fraction in simplest form.
A. 5.37
7 is in the hundredths place, so write hundredths as the denominator.
37 100
= 5
5.37 B
2 is in the thousandths place, so write thousandths as the denominator. =
0.622 =
Simplify by dividing by the greatest common divisor.

7. A fraction is in reduced, or simplest, form when the numerator and the denominator have no common divisor other than 1.
Remember!

8. 5 is in the hundredths place, so write hundredths as the denominator.

9. Example: Writing Repeating Decimals as Fractions_
Write 0.4 as a fraction in simplest form.
x = …
Let x represent the number.
Multiply both sides by 10 because 1 digit repeats.
10x = 10( …)
10x = …
Subtract x from both sides to eliminate the repeating part. Since x = …, use … for x on the right side of the equation.
-x = …
9x = 4
9x = 4
Since x is multiplied by 9, divide both sides by 9.
x =

10. Write 0.36 as a fraction in simplest form.
Example 2 __
Write 0.36 as a fraction in simplest form.
x = …
Let x represent the number.
Multiply both sides by 100 because 2 digits repeat.
100x = 100( …)
100x = …
Subtract x from both sides to eliminate the repeating part. Since x = …, use … for x on the right side of the equation.
-x = …
99x = 36
99x =
Since x is multiplied by 99, divide both sides by 99.
x = =
Write in simplest form.
