We will start by understanding how a decimal represents the fractional part of a number, then break down the steps to rewrite .125 as a fraction. Finally, we will simplify the fraction by identifying and applying the Greatest Common Factor, ensuring the results are in the simplest form.

By the end of this guide, you should have a good understanding of decimal to fraction conversions and be able to apply this knowledge to various mathematical problems. Let's begin.

.125 as a fraction equals 125/1000 or 1/8

Now let's break down the steps for converting .125 into a fraction.

Step 1:

First, we express .125 as a fraction by placing it over 1:.125/1

Step 2:

Next, we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 for each digit after the decimal point..125 x 1000/1 x 1000  =  125/1000

Step 3:

Next, we find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for 125 and 1000. Keep in mind a factor is just a number that divides into another number without any remainder.The factors of 125 are: 1 5 25 125The factors of 1000 are: 1 2 4 5 8 10 20 25 40 50 100 125 200 250 500 1000The GCF of 125 and 1000 is: 125

Step 4:

To simplify the fraction, we divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF), which we calculated in the previous step. The GCF value is 125 in this case.125 ÷ 125/1000 ÷ 125  =  1/8Great Work! We've just determined that .125 as a fraction equals 125/1000 or 1/8 in its simplest form.
