To convert the decimal 6.025 into a mixed number, you can follow these steps:
1. Identify the whole number part, which is 6.
2. Take the decimal part (0.025) and convert it to a fraction.
\( 0.025 = \frac{25}{1000} \)
3. Simplify the fraction \( \frac{25}{1000} \). Both the numerator and denominator can be divided by 25:
\( \frac{25 \div 25}{1000 \div 25} = \frac{1}{40} \)
4. Combine the whole number and the fraction to write it as a mixed number:
\( 6.025 = 6 \frac{1}{40} \)
Thus, the mixed number representation of 6.025 is:
**6 \(\frac{1}{40}\)**.
