0.125 as a Fraction (simplified form)

In order to write 0.125 in fraction form, or any decimal as a fraction, we need to first get it to a whole number over a whole number. In this case if we consider 0.125 to be 0.125/1 we can multiple both the numerator and the denominator by 1000:

1000/1000 * 0.125/1

This gives 125/1000.

Next we find the lowest common factor for the numerator and denominator as shown in the video. That means that 0.125 can be expressed as the fraction 125/1000. This can be reduced further to 1/8.

When we express numbers as fractions we need to make sure we have both the numerator and denominator in their simplest form. We can do this by dividing both by a common factor.

This general technique can be used to find the fraction for any decimal number. Note that for something like 0.256 you would only multiple by 1000/1000. For 0.88 you would multiply by 100/100.
