Decimals are not simplified. They are rounded, by taking the nearest unit in the next higher power. For example, 6.47 becomes 6.5 and 1.2008 becomes 1.201 or 1.20 depending on the number of significant digits.
Fractions can be simplified by making the numerator and denominator relatively prime (irreducible). For example, both 3/6 and 4/8 are simplified to 1/2.
