Exercise 214
Convert this decimals to fractions, and write each in lowest terms. (See Example.)
.34 = _____________
Converting Decimals to Fractions
Convert the following decimals to fractions.
(a)
Convert this decimals to fractions, and write each in lowest terms. (See Example.)  .34 = _____________ Converting Decimals to Fractions  Convert the following decimals to fractions. (a)      (b)      (c)      SOLUTION  (a) After removing the decimal point in.3, you can see that the numerator of the fraction is 3. Since there is only one digit to the right of the decimal point, the denominator is 1 followed by one zero, or 10.     (b) The numerator of the fraction is 98. Since there are two digits to the right of the decimal point, the denominator is 1 followed by two zeros, or 100.     (c) Since there are three digits to the right of the decimal point, the denominator is 1 followed by three zeros, or 1000.
(b)
Convert this decimals to fractions, and write each in lowest terms. (See Example.)  .34 = _____________ Converting Decimals to Fractions  Convert the following decimals to fractions.
