The decimal 0.125 means 125 parts out of 1000. 125/1000 This is not simplest form yet, divide top and bottom by 5. 25/200 Still not in simplest form yet, divide top and bottom by 5. 5/40 Still not in simplest form, divide top and bottom by 5. 1/8
if you have a number that is the same on top or bottom you can assume it is one always.
To manually convert decimals to fractions, first put it as a number over a multiple of 10: 46375/10000 Then simplify: 9275/2000 (divided top and bottom by 5) 1855/400 (divided top and bottom by 5) 371/80 (divided top and bottom by 5) So the answer as a vulgar fraction is 371/80

A top heavy fraction is one in which the top number is greater than the bottom number, such as 7/5. Top heavy fractions are not excepted as final answers. A mixed number is one where the top number is divided into the bottom number, so that it is not top heavy, such as 1 2/5, which is the same as 7/5.
