For numbers with decimal points, multiply by the power of 10 that eliminates numbers after the decimal point, then simplify.
Two numbers past the decimal point multiply by 10%5E2=100
4.74=474%2F100=237%2F50
For mixed fractions, multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator for the new numerator of the fraction. Keep the same denominator.
6%261%2F3=%286%2A3%2B1%29%2F3=19%2F3
Do the same for the two remaining numbers.
