Question

Write -4.09 as a mixed number

Answer 1

ANSWER

$-4\frac{9}{100}$

EXPLANATION

We want to write -4.09 as a mixed number.

To do this, we want to express it as a mixture of a whole number and a fraction.

Therefore, we have:

$\begin{gathered} -4.09\Rightarrow\frac{-409}{100} \\ -4.09\Rightarrow\frac{-400-9}{100}=\frac{-400}{100}+\frac{-9}{100} \\ -4.09\Rightarrow-4+\frac{-9}{100} \\ \Rightarrow-4\frac{9}{100} \end{gathered}$

That is the answer.
