Answer 1

To convert 0.96 to a fraction, you can express it as:

\[
0.96 = \frac{96}{100}
\]

Now, simplify \(\frac{96}{100}\):

1. Find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 96 and 100. The GCD is 4.
2. Divide both the numerator and the denominator by the GCD:

\[
\frac{96 \div 4}{100 \div 4} = \frac{24}{25}
\]

Therefore, the simplest form of \(0.96\) as a fraction is \(\frac{24}{25}\).

So the correct answer is: **24/25**.
