The place after 1st decimal is 1/10, after 2nd 1/00, after 3rd 1000, etc.
To convert to fraction:
1. Move the decimal point to the end
2. this is the numerator
3. count how many places you moved
4. the denominator is 1 followed by that many zeros (the number places you moved)
5. The fraction is numerator/denominator
6. simplest form divide numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor
For example, let's take the decimal 0.75
1. Move the decimal point to the end 75
2. this is the numerator 75
3. count how many places you moved (2)
4. the denominator is 1 followed by that many zeros (the number places you moved) 100
5. The fraction is numerator/denominator 75/100
6. simplest form divide numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor (25)
75/100 = 3/4
