Explanation:

To convert a decimal to a fraction, place the decimal number over its place value. For example, in 0.6, the six is in the tenths place, so we place 6 over 10 to create the equivalent fraction, 6/10. If needed, simplify the fraction.

Answer:

How do you write a decimal as a fraction?

To write a decimal as a fraction, the decimal point is removed and the numbers to the left and right of the decimal point become the numerator and denominator, respectively. The numerator and denominator are then reduced to the lowest terms.

Example:

0.125

125/1000

GCF=5

25/200

GCF=5

5/40

GCF=5

1/8
