Answer:
76 tenths

Step-by-step explanation:
Dewayne waters his plant with 0.76 quart of water every other day .
Lets write the number 0.76 in word form and fraction form
In 0.76, 7 is in tenths place and 6 is in hundredths place
0.76 can be written as 76 tenths
To get fraction form , remove the decimal by multiply it by 100
0.76 or 0.76/1 are same
\(\frac{0.76}{1} =\frac{0.76 \cdot 100}{1 \cdot 100} =\frac{76}{100}\)
Now reduce the fraction

\(\frac{76}{100}=\frac{19}{25}\)
