Let’s solve each decimal-to-fraction problem step by step. We’ll convert each decimal to a fraction and then simplify it if possible.
---
1. 0.12
→ 0.12 = 12/100
→ Simplify: divide numerator and denominator by 4 →
3/25
2. 0.15
→ 0.15 = 15/100
→ Simplify: divide by 5 →
3/20
3. 0.45
→ 0.45 = 45/100
→ Simplify: divide by 5 →
9/20
4. 0.01
→ 0.01 = 1/100 → already simplified →
1/100
5. 0.04
→ 0.04 = 4/100
→ Simplify: divide by 4 →
1/25
6. 0.77
→ 0.77 = 77/100 → no common factors →
77/100
7. 0.16
→ 0.16 = 16/100
→ Simplify: divide by 4 →
4/25
8. 0.07
→ 0.07 = 7/100 → already simplified →
7/100
9. 0.63
→ 0.63 = 63/100 → no common factors (63=7×9, 100=2²×5²) →
63/100
10. 0.19
→ 0.19 = 19/100 → prime number, can’t simplify →
19/100

Now the second column:
11. 1.3
→ 1.3 = 13/10 → already simplified →
13/10 or as mixed number: 1 3/10 (but since question says “fractions”, we’ll leave as improper unless specified — but both are acceptable; let’s use improper for consistency)
Actually, looking at other problems like 1.3, 6.2 etc., they’re greater than 1, so we can write them as improper fractions.
But note: sometimes teachers prefer mixed numbers for values >1. However, the instruction says “convert to fractions” — which includes improper fractions. Let’s check simplification only.
1.3 = 13/10 → already simplified →
13/10
12. 6.2
→ 6.2 = 62/10
→ Simplify: divide by 2 →
31/5
13. 3.5
→ 3.5 = 35/10
→ Simplify: divide by 5 →
7/2
14. 2.1
→ 2.1 = 21/10 → already simplified →
21/10
15. 1.8
→ 1.8 = 18/10
→ Simplify: divide by 2 →
9/5
16. 1.5
→ 1.5 = 15/10
→ Simplify: divide by 5 →
3/2
17. 4.5
→ 4.5 = 45/10
→ Simplify: divide by 5 →
9/2
18. 2.7
→ 2.7 = 27/10 → already simplified →
27/10
19. 5.5
→ 5.5 = 55/10
→ Simplify: divide by 5 →
11/2
20. 2.3
→ 2.3 = 23/10 → already simplified →
23/10
