2.9 is just 29 / 10. For decimal numbers that terminate, it's pretty easy to convert to fractions since decimals is just a particular type of fraction (namely, a fraction whose denominator is a power of 10).

For instance, 0.33 is 33 / 100

0.57 is 57 / 100

0.123 is 123/1000

1.234 is 1234/1000

You can then simplify the fraction if you wish.

2.9 as a fraction is 2 9/10

Say if you had 0.5 the answer would be 1/2

or 5/10.

To change a decimal to fraction is quite simple. The number before the decimal point is the whole number so when that is changed to a fraction it will be by itself without a line underneath it. The number after the decimal point is the fraction out of 10; so you write that then put a line underneath it and then write 10.

Remember; the number on it's own/before the decimal point is the whole number, the number after the decimal point/on top of the line is the numerator and the number on the bottom is the denominator.

Example:

4(whole number).3(numerator) = 4(whole number) / 10 (denominator).

Hope I helped :D x

first, put the decimal number over 1. (any number over 1 is itself) then, make the numerator a whole number by moving the decimal one place to the right--2.9 becomes 29. u must also move the decimal one place to the right in the denominator---1 becomes 10. so now ur number is 29/10. then reduce. the answer is 2 9/10, or two and nine tenths.

It is 2 9/10.

The first figure after the decimal is 9/10 or .9.

If you had 2 98/100 the decimal would be 2 .98

Very simple - how do you say 2.9?

Two and nine tenths.

nine tenths = 9/10

Since 2 is whole, it'd be 2 9/10 as a mixed fraction, or 29/10.

FOR INSTANCE =

6.24

Six and twenty four one hundredths

6 24/100 OR 624/100
