Let's pay attention to where the decimal point is located in the number.
Remember:
One number after the zero represents tens
Two numbers after the zero represent hundreds
Three numbers after the zero represent thousands
And so on
In this case, there are two numbers after the zero, so the number is divided by 100
We'll write the fraction in the following way:
We'll then proceed to remove the unnecessary zeros as follows:
Convert into fraction form:
\( 0.38= \)
Count the decimal places! One decimal place = 10, two decimal places = 100, three decimal places = 1000. Since 0.33 has two decimal places, use 100 as the denominator.
Check if 33 and 100 have any common factors. Since 33 = 3 × 11 and 100 = 2² × 5², they share no common factors, so is already in simplest form!
0.33 is exactly thirty-three hundredths, while 0.333... (repeating) equals . The question asks for 0.33, so the answer is .
Since is less than 1 (33 < 100), it's called a proper fraction and doesn't need to be written as a mixed number. Keep it as .
Divide the numerator by the denominator: 33 ÷ 100 = 0.33. If this matches your original decimal, you're correct!
