Question #33e3f

Answer 1

See a solution process below:

Explanation:

`98.25` is 98 and 25 hundredths, or:

`98 + 25/100`

We can factor the fraction as:

`98 + (25 xx 1)/(25 xx 4) => 98 + (color(red)(cancel(color(black)(25))) xx 1)/(color(red)(cancel(color(black)(25))) xx 4) => 98 + 1/4 =>`

`98 1/4`

Answer 2

`98.25=98 1/4`

Explanation:

A mixed number is comprised of a whole number and a fraction, like so:

`"Mixed number"="A whole number"+"A fraction"`.

Example: `1 1/2=1+1/2`

We know that we can turn decimals into fractions. Using the above definition of mixed numbers, we notice that we can turn a decimal into a mixed number by splitting the decimal up into its whole number and decimal parts. Then we keep the whole number as is while we turn the decimal into a fraction. We can combine the two to obtain the mixed number that is the value of the decimal. Applying these steps onto our problem, we get:

`98.25=98+0.25=98+1/4=98 1/4`
