We will start by understanding how a decimal represents the fractional part of a number, then break down the steps to rewrite .56 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.

.56 as a fraction equals 56/100 or 14/25

Now let's break down the steps for converting .56 into a fraction.

Step 1:

First, we express .56 as a fraction by placing it over 1:.56/1

Step 2:

Next, we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 for each digit after the decimal point..56 x 100/1 x 100  =  56/100

Step 3:

Next, we find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for 56 and 100. Keep in mind a factor is just a number that divides into another number without any remainder.The factors of 56 are: 1 2 4 7 8 14 28 56The factors of 100 are: 1 2 4 5 10 20 25 50 100The GCF of 56 and 100 is: 4

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 4 in this case.56 ÷ 4/100 ÷ 4  =  14/25Great Work! We've just determined that .56 as a fraction equals 56/100 or 14/25 in its simplest form.
