Answer:

\(-2\frac{8}{25}\)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to write \(-2.32\) as a mixed number in simplest form.

We will multiply and divide \(-2.32\) by 100 to remove decimal.

\(-2.32\times \frac{100}{100}\)

\(-\frac{2.32\times 100}{100}\)

\(-\frac{232}{100}\)

Reduce to simplest form:

\(-\frac{58\times 4}{25\times 4}\)

\(-\frac{58}{25}\)

\(-2\frac{8}{25}\)

Therefore, our required fraction would be \(-2\frac{8}{25}\).
