What is 4.1 repeating written as a fraction?

I don't know if it should be written over 100 or over 10.
Answered by Ms. Sue
1/10

Thank you! Could you please show your work to how you got to 1/10? It would be easier to explain to my class.
Answered by Ms. Sue
We read 4.1 as four and one-tenth.

The first place after the decimal point is the tenths place.
