7.71 = 7 71/100 or 771/100
7 71/100 is an integer plus a proper fraction
771/100 is an improper fraction
7.71/1.00 = 771/100, just move the decimal over twice in both numerator and denominator
prime factors of 100 are 5,5, 2 and 2, but 771 while divisible by 3 is not divisible by 5 or 2, so 771/100 cannot be reduced further to get a smaller integer over another integer.
