Correct answer: A

Solution: Convert the decimal to a fraction and simplify.

  • Write the decimal as a fraction: 0.36 = 36/100.

  • Simplify the fraction by dividing numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, 4: 36 ÷ 4 = 9 and 100 ÷ 4 = 25, so 36/100 = 9/25.

  • Add the numerator and denominator: 9 + 25 = 34.
