Me ! what is 0.56 written as a fraction in its simplest form? a. 2/5 b. 14/25 c. 1/2 d. 5 3/5

The correct answer to this question would be answer choice B.

To convert the decimal 0.56 to a fraction, first set it to a fraction over 100 which would be 56/100.

Then, because the question asks for the fraction to be in simplest form, look for the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator or 56 and 100.

To find it, list out all of their factors:

56: 1, 2, 4, 7, 8 , 14, 28, 56

100: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10,20,25,50,100

Notice that out of all the factors listed, the greatest common factor listed is 4. Because of this, divide both the numerator and denominator by 4 to simplify your fraction to your 14/25

step-by-step explanation:

this can be solved first with pythagorean theorem, which tells us to square both legs of the triangle and sum it. this will be equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

the hypotenuse is the side "opposite" the 90 degree angle, which is x.

so we can write using pythagorean theorem,

simplifying:

to further simplify this radical, we need to use the property  

thus
