Everett Mercado · Answer 1

725/1000 or if you wanna break it down you can put it as 29/40

Alayna Lin · Answer 2

So you put 72.5 over 100 (72.5/100)

Then you multiply the top and the bottom by 10 to get rid of the decimal, giving you 725/1000

Then you divide the top and bottom by like factors, starting with 5 (145/200)

Then another 5, giving you 29 over 40 (29/40)
