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.

1.3392 as a fraction equals 13392/10000 or 837/625

Now let's break down the steps for converting 1.3392 into a fraction.

Step 1:

First, we express 1.3392 as a fraction by placing it over 1:
1.3392/1

Step 2:

Next, we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 for each digit after the decimal point.
1.3392 x 10000/1 x 10000
  =  
13392/10000

Step 3:

Next, we find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for 13392 and 10000. Keep in mind a factor is just a number that divides into another number without any remainder.
The factors of 13392 are: 1 2 3 4 6 8 9 12 16 18 24 27 31 36 48 54 62 72 93 108 124 144 186 216 248 279 372 432 496 558 744 837 1116 1488 1674 2232 3348 4464 6696 13392
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 13392 and 10000 is: 16

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 16 in this case.
13392 ÷ 16/10000 ÷ 16
  =  
837/625


Great Work! We've just determined that 1.3392 as a fraction equals 13392/10000 or 837/625 in its simplest form.
