Answer 1

To convert 0.96 to a fraction, we can start by writing it as 96/100.

Next, we need to simplify this fraction:

1. The greatest common divisor (GCD) of 96 and 100 is 4.
2. Dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 4, we get:

\( \frac{96 \div 4}{100 \div 4} = \frac{24}{25} \)

So, the simplest form of 0.96 as a fraction is:

**\( \frac{24}{25} \)**

Among the provided responses, the correct answer is:
