To convert the decimal 4.65 into a fraction, you can follow these steps:

1. **Separate the whole number and the decimal part**:
- The whole number is 4.
- The decimal part is 0.65.

2. **Convert the decimal part to a fraction**:
- 0.65 can be expressed as \( \frac{65}{100} \) because there are two digits after the decimal point.

3. **Simplify the fraction**:
- The fraction \( \frac{65}{100} \) can be simplified:
- Both the numerator and the denominator can be divided by 5.
- \( \frac{65 \div 5}{100 \div 5} = \frac{13}{20} \).

4. **Combine the whole number with the fractional part**:
- So, \( 4.65 \) can be written as \( 4 + \frac{13}{20} \).
- This is the same as \( \frac{4 \times 20 + 13}{20} = \frac{80 + 13}{20} = \frac{93}{20} \).

Therefore, \( 4.65 \) as a fraction is \( \frac{93}{20} \).
