31/50
Showing the work
Rewrite the decimal number as a fraction with 1 in the denominator
0.62=0.62/1
Multiply to remove 2 decimal places. Here, you multiply top and bottom by 10^2=100
0.62/1*100/100=62/100
Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 62 and 100, if it exists, and reduce the fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by GCF=2,
62/2
_____=31/50
100/2
Therefore
X=31/50
In conclusion,
0.62=31/50
