The best first step for converting decimals into fractions is to multiply them by a power of 10 that leaves us with no numbers to the right of the decimal place. In this case we can multiply by 1,000 to get 3,568. We put that power of 10 as the denominator and have our starting point: 3568/1000

The next step is to note that both numbers are divisible by 8, so divide top and bottom by 8 and we get 446/125. This is the simplest the number will get as a top heavy fraction. This can be converted into a mixed number though by subtracting 3 lots of 125 from the numerator, to leave us with 3 and 71/125
