Answers

Answered by GPT-4o mini
To convert 4.5% to a fraction, follow these steps:

1. Write 4.5% as a fraction:
\[
4.5\% = \frac{4.5}{100}
\]

2. To eliminate the decimal, multiply the numerator and the denominator by 10:
\[
\frac{4.5 \times 10}{100 \times 10} = \frac{45}{1000}
\]

3. Now, simplify the fraction by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 45 and 1000. The GCD is 5.
Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 5:
\[
\frac{45 \div 5}{1000 \div 5} = \frac{9}{200}
\]

Thus, 4.5% as a fraction is \(\frac{9}{200}\).
