Answer:

17/10 or 1 7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

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

1.7 = 1.7/1

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

As we have 1 numbers after the decimal point, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 10. So,

1.7/1

= (1.7 × 10)/ (1 × 10)

= 17/10

(This fraction is alread reduced, We can't reduce it any further).

As the numerator is greater than the denominator, we have an IMPROPER fraction, so we can also express it as a MIXED NUMBER, thus 17/

10 is also equal to 1 7/10 when expressed as a mixed number.
