What is obtained when 0.5625 is converted into a simplified fraction?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 9/16

A terminating decimal can be converted to a fraction by using a power of ten as the denominator, followed by reduction to lowest terms. Since 0.5625 has four digits after the decimal point, 0.5625 = 5625/10000. The greatest common divisor of 5625 and 10000 is 625. Dividing numerator and denominator by 625 gives 5625 ÷ 625 = 9 and 10000 ÷ 625 = 16. Therefore 0.5625 = 9/16, so option A is correct. Option C, 45/80, has the same numerical value but is not simplified because both terms are divisible by 5. Option D uses 1000 instead of the required denominator for four decimal places, and option B represents a different value.
