0.375 as a fraction
Follow further steps:
1st step: express decimal as a fraction, where numerator is the number you want to convert to fraction, i.e. .375, and denominator is 1, i.e.:
2nd step: Multiply both numerator and denominator by 10, 100, 1000 and so on to get the whole number as a numerator, depending on how many numbers there are after decimal point.
- For example, if there is one number after decimal point, both numerator and denominator are multiplied by 10
- If there are 2 numbers after decimal point, both numerator and denominator are multiplied by 100 and so on
0.375 has 3 numbers after the decimal point, therefore numerator and denominator are multiplied by 1000:
As a result we get a fraction: 375/1000, which expresses 0.375 decimal as a fraction
However this is not all
the last 3rd step is to check whether the fraction can be simplified and if so, simplify it.
This is done by dividing numerator and denominator by Highest Common Factor
Highest Common Factor for 375/1000 is 125. Therefore to simplify the fraction divide numerator and denominator by 125, i.e.:
The result is 3/8
