• A. $4\frac{2}{100}$
• B. $2\frac{1}{25}$
• C. $2\frac{4}{50}$
• D. $2\frac{1}{100}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $2\frac{1}{25}$

$\text{The value written on the red truck is}$ $\text{2.04.}$

$\text{We can see that this value consists}$ $\text{of a whole-number part and a}$ $\text{decimal part.}$

$\text{We will keep the whole-number part}$ $\text{and divide the decimal part by 100.}$

$⟹2.04=2and\frac{4}{100}$

$\text{Let's convert the fractional part into}$ $\text{its simplest form.}$

$⟹\frac{4}{100}=$ $\frac{4÷4}{100÷4}=\frac{1}{25}$

$⟹2.04=2\frac{1}{25}$
