Question

0.3

0.3 = \square (simplify your answer.)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify decimal place

0.3 has one decimal place, so it's in the tenths place.

Step2: Write as fraction

A number in the tenths place can be written as the digit over 10. So 0.3 = $\frac{3}{10}$.

Step3: Simplify (if needed)

3 and 10 have no common factors other than 1, so $\frac{3}{10}$ is simplified.

Answer:

$\frac{3}{10}$
