What is .0625 as a fraction?
As a fraction, .0625 is 625/10,000.
To figure this out, count the places starting with the number closest to the decimal point and going to the right. 0 is in the tens place, 6 in the hundreds, 2 in the thousands, and 5 in the ten thousands.
we have that
\(0.0625\)
step 1
Convert the decimal numbers to a fraction by placing the decimal numbers over a power of ten.
Since there are 4 numbers to the right of the decimal point, place the decimal numbers over \(10^{4} (10,000)\)
so
\(\frac{625}{10,000}\)
step 2
Reduce the expression
divide both members (numerator and denominator) by 625
\(\frac{ \frac{625}{625}}{ \frac{10,000}{625} } = \frac{1}{16}\)
therefore
the answer is
\(\frac{1}{16}\)
