What is .20 as a fraction?

In this article, we will guide you step by step through the process of converting the decimal .20 into a fraction. We will start by understanding how a decimal represents the fractional part of a number, then break down the steps to rewrite .20 as a fraction. Finally, we will simplify the fraction by identifying and applying the Greatest Common Factor, ensuring the results are in the simplest form.

By the end of this guide, you should have a good understanding of decimal to fraction conversions and be able to apply this knowledge to various mathematical problems. Let's begin.

.20 as a fraction equals 20/100 or 1/5

Now let's break down the steps for converting .20 into a fraction.

Step 1:

First, we express .20 as a fraction by placing it over 1:.20/1

Step 2:

Next, we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 for each digit after the decimal point..20 x 100/1 x 100  =  20/100

Step 3:

Next, we find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for 20 and 100. Keep in mind a factor is just a number that divides into another number without any remainder.The factors of 20 are: 1 2 4 5 10 20The factors of 100 are: 1 2 4 5 10 20 25 50 100The GCF of 20 and 100 is: 20

Step 4:

To simplify the fraction, we divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF), which we calculated in the previous step. The GCF value is 20 in this case.20 ÷ 20/100 ÷ 20  =  1/5Great Work! We've just determined that .20 as a fraction equals 20/100 or 1/5 in its simplest form.

Frequently asked math questions, including decimals and fractions

Read the following section to help deepen your understanding of basic math concepts.

What are whole numbers?

Whole numbers are numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. Whole numbers do not have a decimal point or fractional part. Whole numbers are always positive. Negative numbers are not considered whole.

What does the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) mean?

The greatest common factor is also referred to as the highest common factor. In math, this refers to the greatest common divisor of two or more whole numbers (also known as integers). In simple terms, this is the biggest number that can divide evenly into two or more numbers. For example, the GCF for 4 and 8 is 4.

What is a ratio?

A ratio is a relationship between two numbers that shows how many times one value is contained within another. For example, the ratio 3:1 means there are 3 parts of one quantity for every 1 part of another.

What is a mean (average)?

The mean, or average, is calculated by adding all the numbers in a set and dividing by the total number of values. For example, the mean of 3, 4, and 5 is (3 + 4 + 5)/3 = 4.

What is a decimal place?

A decimal place refers to the position of a digit to the right of the decimal point. For example, in 3.141, the digit 1 is in the thousandths place.

What are rounding decimals?

Rounding decimals means adjusting a number to a given place value. For example, rounding 3.186 to two decimal places gives 3.19. Note that last digit which is 6 is closer to 10 than 1 so the digit before it which is 8 move up a value to 9.
