Convert 11.09 into equivalent fractions and write it as a percentage value

1. Write the pure repeating (recurring) decimal number as a percentage.

Approximate to the desired number of decimal places (14).

11.0911.09090909090909


Multiply the number by 100/100.

  • The value of the number does not change when multiplying by 100/100.
  • Note: 100/100 = 1

11.09090909090909 =


11.09090909090909 × 100/100 =


(11.09090909090909 × 100)/100 =


1,109.090909090909/100 =


1,109.090909090909% ≈


1,109.09%


(rounded off to max. 2 decimal places)


  • In other words:
  • Approximate to the desired number of decimal places...
  • Multiply the number by 100...
  • ... And then add the percent sign, %
  • 11.091,109.09%


2. Write the pure repeating (recurring) decimal number as an improper fraction.

  • 11.09 can be written as an improper fraction.

  • The numerator is larger than or equal to the denominator.

Set up the first equation.

  • Let y equal the decimal number:
  • y = 11.09


Set up the second equation.

  • Number of decimal places repeating: 2
  • Multiply both sides of the first equation by 102 = 100


y = 11.09


100 × y = 100 × 11.09


100 × y = 1,109.09


Subtract the first equation from the second one.

  • Having the same number of decimal places ...
  • The repeating pattern drops off by subtracting the two equations.

100 × y - y = 1,109.09 - 11.09


(100 - 1) × y = 1,109.09 - 11.09


We now have a new equation:


99 × y = 1,098


Solve for y in the new equation.

99 × y = 1,098 ⇒


y = 1,098/99


Let the result written as a fraction.



Now we can write the number as a fraction.

According to our first equation:

y = 11.09


According to our calculations:

y = 1,098/99


⇒ 11.09 = 1,098/99


3. Reduce (simplify) the fraction above:
1,098/99
to the lowest terms, to its simplest equivalent form, irreducible.

To reduce a fraction to the lowest terms divide the numerator and denominator by their greatest (highest) common factor (divisor), GCF.


Factor the numerator and denominator (prime factorization).

1,098 = 2 × 32 × 61


99 = 32 × 11



Calculate the greatest (highest) common factor (divisor), GCF.

Multiply all the common prime factors by the lowest exponents.


GCF (2 × 32 × 61; 32 × 11) = 32



Divide both the numerator and the denominator by their GCF.

1,098/99 =


(2 × 32 × 61)/(32 × 11) =


((2 × 32 × 61) ÷ 32) / ((32 × 11) ÷ 32) =


(2 × 61)/11 =


122/11


4. The fraction is an improper one, rewrite it as a mixed number (mixed fraction):

  • A mixed number = an integer number and a proper fraction, of the same sign.
  • Example 1: 2 1/5; Example 2: - 1 3/7.
  • A proper fraction = the numerator is smaller than the denominator.

122 ÷ 11 = 11, remainder = 1 ⇒


122 = 11 × 11 + 1 ⇒


122/11 =


(11 × 11 + 1) / 11 =


(11 × 11) / 11 + 1/11 =


11 + 1/11 =


11 1/11


122/11 ~ Equivalent fractions.

  • The above fraction cannot be reduced.
  • That is, it has the smallest possible numerator and denominator.
  • By expanding it we can build up equivalent fractions.

  • Multiply the numerator & the denominator by the same number.


Example 1. By expanding the fraction by 5.

122/11 = (122 × 5)/(11 × 5) = 610/55

Example 2. By expanding the fraction by 10.

122/11 = (122 × 10)/(11 × 10) = 1,220/110

  • Of course, the above fractions are reducing...
  • ... to the initial fraction: 122/11


:: Final answer ::
