What is 0.0620 as a fraction?

In this article, we will guide you step by step through the process of converting the decimal 0.0620 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 0.0620 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.

0.0620 as a fraction equals 620/10000 or 31/500

Now let's break down the steps for converting 0.0620 into a fraction.

Step 1:

First, we express 0.0620 as a fraction by placing it over 1:
0.0620/1

Step 2:

Next, we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 for each digit after the decimal point.
0.0620 x 10000/1 x 10000
  =  
620/10000

Step 3:

Next, we find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for 620 and 10000. Keep in mind a factor is just a number that divides into another number without any remainder.
The factors of 620 are: 1 2 4 5 10 20 31 62 124 155 310 620
The factors of 10000 are: 1 2 4 5 8 10 16 20 25 40 50 80 100 125 200 250 400 500 625 1000 1250 2000 2500 5000 10000
The GCF of 620 and 10000 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.
620 ÷ 20/10000 ÷ 20
  =  
31/500


Great Work! We've just determined that 0.0620 as a fraction equals 620/10000 or 31/500 in its simplest form.
