Question

Express 3.33 as a fraction.

Answer 1

Shifting the decimal point two places to the right, 3.33 can be written as $\frac{333}{100}.$

$3.33=\frac{333}{100}$

Using long division, we have:


When expressing this as a mixed number, we have:

• Quotient = Number of wholes = 3
• Remainder = Numerator of the fractional part = 33
• Divisor = Denominator of the fractional part = 100

$\therefore \frac{333}{100}=3\frac{33}{100}$
