Respuesta :

The answer would be 60/100.

Answer : The fraction in simplest form is, [tex]\frac{3}{500}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation :

Decimal numbers are not considered as integers. They are rounded off to write an integer.

Fraction is present in the form of [tex]\frac{p}{q}[/tex] where [tex]q\neq 0[/tex]

To remove decimal, we divide the number by [tex]10^n[/tex] where, n = number of decimal places

As we are given that:

Family’s expenses for internet services = 0.6%

Converting this into fractional form, we get:

[tex]\Rightarrow 0.6\%=\frac{0.6}{100}=\frac{6}{1000}=\frac{3}{500}[/tex]

Thus, the fraction in simplest form is, [tex]\frac{3}{500}[/tex]
