If decimal number has n digits after the decimal point then

the numerator of the fraction is the decimal number without the decimal point and

the denominator is 1 followed by n zeros.

That is the fractional representation of the decimal number. You may need to simplify.

For example,

27.356 : there are three digits after the decimal point so n = 3.

Therefore the fraction is 27356/1000 which can be simplified to 6839/250.

Or 0.00076 : there are 5 digits after the decimal point so n = 5.

Therefore the fraction is 76/100000 which can be simplified to 19/25000.
