Solution
This statement is False.
Explanation:
We know that, a decimal can be converted into a fraction by taking the numerator as the number obtained by removing the decimal point from the given decimal and taking the denominator as the number obtained by inserting as many zeroes with 1 as there are number of place in the decimal part.
Finally, converting the obtained fraction in its lowest form by dividing numerator and denominator by their HCF and converting it to mixed fraction if required.
∴ `23.2 = 232/10`
= `(232 ÷ 2)/(10 ÷ 2)`
= `116/5`
= `23 1/5`
