I'm trying to turn 1.4 into a fraction, and the answer I got didn't match any of my options. I got 7/5 but my options are

A. 1/4
B. 1 1/4
C. 1 1/2
D. 1 2/5

Respuesta :

1.4

= 14 /10

= 7 /5

= 1 2/5

answer

D. 1 2/5

to change an improper fraction to a mixed fraction, we simply divide the numerator by the denominator, and use the quotient and remainder, let's do so


[tex]\bf 1.4\implies \cfrac{7}{5}\implies 7\div 5\impliedby \textit{\underline{q}uotient of 1, \underline{r}emainder of 2}\implies \qquad \stackrel{q}{1}\frac{\stackrel{r}{2}}{5}[/tex]
