What is the same about how the denominator of the fraction and the digits to the right of the decimal point change?

There is no direct relation between the two.
For example,
1/2 has 1 decimal digit
1/3 has infinitely many
1/4 has 2
1/6 has infinitely many.

When converting a decimal to a fraction what determines the denominator of the fraction?
The denominator of the fraction is determined by the number of decimal places in the decimal number. If there is one decimal place, the denominator will be 10. If there are two decimal places, the denominator will be 100, and so on.
1.26666667 as a fraction?
As an improper fraction: 126666667/100000000. As an improper fraction: 1 26666667/100000000. The denominator has as many zeroes as the original decimal as digits after the decimal point.
How to turn a fraction to a decimal?
, divide the numerator by the denominator. To change terminal decimals into fractions, count the number of decimal places, put the decimal's digits over 1 followed by the proper number of zeroes.
0.656 as a fraction?
That is 656 / 1000. Since there are three digits after the decimal point, you need three zeroes in the fraction's denominator.
What type of decimal has a finite number of digits after decimal point?
A decimal of a fraction whose denominator is of the form 2ax5b where a and b are non-negative integers.

How do you change 4.371371 to fraction?
4.371371 = 4371371/1000000, where the number of zeros in the denominator is the same as the number of digits after the decimal point in the original number. The procedure is somewhat different if the decimal is a recurring decimal.
How do you write 0.1504 as a fraction?
Put the digits after the decimal point as the numerator over 1 followed by the same number of zeros as digits as the denominator and simplify. In this case, the numerator is 1504 and as there are 4 digits after the decimal point the denominator is 10000.
1.26666667 as a fraction?

How to write a terminating decimal as a fraction?
any decimal that terminates can be changed into a fraction by dividing the digits to the right of the decimal by 1 followed by the same number of 0s.For example, 2.12345 has 5 digits after the decimal. So, you can change it to a proper fraction by dividing 12345/100000 and then adding the 2, or123452 ---------100000That number can then be simplified to24692 ---------20000by dividing both the top (numerator) and bottom (denominator) by 5.
How do you convert .240 to a fraction?
Since there are three decimal digits, that is the same as 240/1000 (that is, three zeroes in the denominator).
When a fraction is changed to a decimal and the remainder is NOT zero a digit or block of digits will eventually start to repeat is a?
It is a fraction whose denominator has a factor other than 2 or 5.
What are rules in changing non terminating but repeating decimal into fraction?
-- Take one complete set of the repeated digits in the decimal. Treat those digits as the numerator of a fraction. -- The denominator of the fraction is a string of nines (99...) ... just as many as there are digits in the numerator. -- Reduce the fraction to lower terms (simplify) if it's possible and you feel like it.
What is a real number that can be written as a fraction denominator does not equal 0 a repeating or terminating decimal or an integer?
Any number that can be written as a fraction (with a non-zero denominator) is a rational number; in decimal format it will either terminate (possibly with no digits after the decimal point, ie an integer) or end in a repeating sequence of digits. Any number which cannot be written as a fraction (one integer over another) is an irrational number. If I understand your question correctly: A number written as a fraction with a denominator which does not equal zero can be any of a terminating decimal, a recurring decimal or an integer - they are all possible.
