1.5 as a fraction would be 1 1/2 (one and a half), since the 1 represents a whole, and the .5 represents a half.

It can also be written as 3/2 since 3 divided by 2 = 1.5, which also = 1 1/2.

In general: if you have a number with finite number of digits after decimal separator, you should make a fraction, where the denominator will be that number, but without decimal separator, and the denominator will be 1 with so many zeros, as are there after the separator.

1.5=15/10

Now we can simplyfy this fraction, for 15=3x5 and 10=2x5

15/10=3/2

Another example :

2.25=225/100=9/4

.15 as a fraction denotes that it is 15 parts out of 100 parts of a substance. To put it in the fraction form it will become 15 upon 100 (15/100) or 3/20.
