0.16 as a fraction in simplest form is expressed as?

Writing a fraction in its simplest form means that the numerator and the denominator can no longer be divided by the same whole number exactly or evenly.

Answer: 0.16 as a fraction in its simplest form is 4/25.

Let's evaluate.

Explanation:

Let us convert 0.16 into a fraction in simplest form

Step 1: Convert 0.16 to a fraction form

0.16 = 16/100

Step 2: Find the HCF or the highest common factor that divides both 16 and 100.

Here, 4 is the HCF 

Step 3: Divide the numerator and the denominator by the HCF i.e, 4 to get the lowest form.

⇒ 16/100 = 4/25

Thus, 0.16 in its simplest form is 4/25.
