Question

If there are 62 boys out of 100 grade 7 students, how do you know this is in fractional form? What is the decimal form?

Answer 1

I know this is in fraction form because it says out of. A fraction will say out of, for example: 3 out of 4. The number 62 boys out of 100 students can be represented as 0.62, 0.62 of 1 (100) whole number.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

The answer is 0.62

The explanation to this is because 62/100 is like saying .62 with hundreths instead.
