Question

a tablet weighs 1.23 pounds what is its weight written as a mixed number

Answer 1

Answer:

$1\frac{23}{100}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to write 1.23 as a fraction,

$1.23=\frac{123}{100}$

Then we have to see whether we can simplify this further.

\frac{123}{100}[/tex] cannot be simplified further.

Now we have to divide the numerator by denominator and take the whole number answer we get,

\frac{123}{100}[/tex] will give 1 as the whole number answer.

Now we have to count the remainder after taking the whole number answer,

$100*1$ gives you $100$ theres $23$ remaining.

So to write this as a Mixed number all you have to do is write the whole number and represent remainder as a fraction $\frac{23}{100}$.

So we get,

1.23 = $1\frac{23}{100}$
