Convert the decimal to a fraction and reduce, if necessary.
0.25

Did you know that converting decimals to fractions can be like flipping pancakes? It just takes a little flip to get the perfect balance! For 0.25, you can imagine it as 25 hundredths or 25/100. Now, here’s where the fun begins: you can reduce it by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 25 in this case. So, 25 ÷ 25 = 1 and 100 ÷ 25 = 4. Ta-da! Now you have 1/4!

To put a cherry on top, remember that 0.25 is not just a random decimal—it’s a common representation of one-fourth in real-world scenarios. For example, if you had a pizza and divided it into four equal slices, eating one slice would mean you’ve consumed 0.25 of the pizza, or 1/4! So next time you’re sharing pizza, you can impress your friends with your math skills!
