Decimal to Fraction

Determine the place value of the right handdigit

Remove the decimal point and divide by this number

1.6 The 6 is in the tenths column so remove the point and divide by 10

1.6 =

Ignore the 3 as this is already a whole number and only deal with the digits after the decimal point.

So 3.45 =

93

Now a few to try

Convert to fractions1. 0.552. 0.1253. 2.44. 5.15

55/100 = 11/20

125/1000 = 1/8

24/10= 22/5

515/100 = 53/20
