Answer
$\frac{13}{25}$
Work Step by Step
We are given the decimal .52. In order to write this decimal as a fraction, we can divide .52 by 1 (which is equivalent to having .52 as the numerator and 1 as the denominator).
$.52\div1=\frac{.52}{1}$
Next, we multiply both the numerator and denominator by factors of 1 until both have no decimal points and are in simplest form.
$\frac{.52}{1}=\frac{.52\times100}{1\times100}=\frac{52}{100}$
Reduce to simplest form.
$\frac{52}{100}=\frac{52\div4}{100\div4}=\frac{13}{25}$
