What is $2.25$ as a fraction?

Answer 1

Convert decimal into a fraction:

The given decimal number $2.25$ can be written as$\frac{2.25}{1}$.

To remove a decimal point from the numerator, multiply both numerator and denominator by $100$

$$\begin{gathered} \therefore \frac{2.25}{1}\times \frac{100}{100}=\frac{225}{100} \\ \Rightarrow =\frac{9}{4} \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the required fraction is$\frac{9}{4}$.
