To convert the decimal 0.6 into a fraction, we can follow a simple process. First, we note that 0.6 can be expressed as 6 tenths since there is one digit after the decimal point. Therefore, we can write:
0.6 = 6/10
Next, we simplify the fraction. Both the numerator (6) and the denominator (10) can be divided by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
6 ÷ 2 = 3
10 ÷ 2 = 5
So, when we simplify 6/10, we get:
3/5
Thus, 0.6 as a fraction is 3/5.
