  9. How do you write 0.09 as a fraction? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/how-do-you-write-0-09-as-a-fraction

    So 0.09 will give us a whole number of 9 for the numerator and there are two decimal places. That indicates there will be two zeros in the denominator to give 1 100. 0.09 = 9 100. Try also converting 0.1085 to a fraction. Numerator is 1085 and there are four decimal places. Denominator now needs four zeros to give 1 10000.

  10. How do you write 25/7 as a mixed fraction? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/how-do-you-write-25-7-as-a-mixed-fraction

    3 + 4 7 = 3 4 7. All done! To write this as a mixed fraction you divided the denominator by the numerator.
