What is 0.7735 as a fraction?

Numbers can be represented in a variety of ways including percentages, decimals, and fractions. The ability to convert any number from one format to another is an important math skill to have. These skills are typically thought in fifth grade math and require an understanding of place values and Greatest Common Factor (GCF).

In this article, we teach those skills step by step while demonstrating how to convert decimal 0.7735 into a fraction.

Answer: 0.7735 as a fraction equals 7735/10000 or 1547/2000

Here is the solution for converting 0.7735 to a fraction:

Step 1:

First, we write 0.7735 as  
0.7735/1

Step 2:

Next, we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 for each digit after the decimal point. Remember the numerator is the top part of the fraction and the denominator is the bottom part!
0.7735/1
  =  
0.7735 x 10000/1 x 10000
  =  
7735/10000


Step 3:

Next, we find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for 7735 and 10000. A factor is a number that divides into another number without any remainder.

The factors of 7735 are: 1  5  7  13  17  35  65  85  91  119  221  455  595  1105  1547  7735 
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 
So for 7735 and 10000 that gives us a GCF value of: 5

Step 4:

For the last step we reduce the fraction. This just means writing the fraction in the simplest way. To do this we divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCF value we determined in step 3.
7735/10000
  =  
7735 ÷ 5/10000 ÷ 5
  =  
1547/2000
