0.425 as a fraction is 425/1000 (as you cannot have a decimal in a fraction). This can then be simplified further to 85/200, which can hen be simplified down to 17/40 Hope this helps :)

Answer: 17/40

Step 1: Write down the number as a fraction of one:

0.425 = 0.425/1

Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point:

As we have 3 numbers after the decimal point, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 1000. So,

0.425/1 = (0.425 x 1000)/(1 x 1000) = 425/1000.

Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the above fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) between them. In this case, GCD(425,1000) = 25. So,

(425÷25)/(1000÷25) = 17/40 when reduced to the simplest form.
