Decimal to Fraction

We can convert a decimal to a fraction using these steps:

Step 1 : For the numerator, write all the digits in the decimal number without the decimal point.

Step 2 : The denominator is a multiple of 10. The number of zeros is the number of decimal places on the right of the decimal point.

Step 3 : Simplify the fraction to the lowest terms whenever possible.
