To convert 7.2 into fraction form, you can follow these steps:

  1. Write 7.2 as \( \frac{72}{10} \) because there is one digit after the decimal point.

  2. Simplify \( \frac{72}{10} \):

    • The greatest common divisor (GCD) of 72 and 10 is 2.
    • Divide both the numerator and the denominator by 2.

    \[ \frac{72 \div 2}{10 \div 2} = \frac{36}{5} \]

So, 7.2 in fraction form is \( \frac{36}{5} \).
