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.

0.07666 as a fraction equals 7666/100000 or 3833/50000

Now let's break down the steps for converting 0.07666 into a fraction.

Step 1:

First, we express 0.07666 as a fraction by placing it over 1:
0.07666/1

Step 2:

Next, we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 for each digit after the decimal point.
0.07666 x 100000/1 x 100000
  =  
7666/100000

Step 3:

Next, we find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for 7666 and 100000. Keep in mind a factor is just a number that divides into another number without any remainder.
The factors of 7666 are: 1 2 3833 7666
The factors of 100000 are: 1 2 4 5 8 10 16 20 25 32 40 50 80 100 125 160 200 250 400 500 625 800 1000 1250 2000 2500 3125 4000 5000 6250 10000 12500 20000 25000 50000 100000
The GCF of 7666 and 100000 is: 2

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 2 in this case.
7666 ÷ 2/100000 ÷ 2
  =  
3833/50000


Great Work! We've just determined that 0.07666 as a fraction equals 7666/100000 or 3833/50000 in its simplest form.

Frequently asked math questions, including decimals and fractions

Read the following section to help deepen your understanding of basic math concepts.

What are improper fractions?

Improper fractions are fractions where the numerator (the top number) is greater than or equal to the denominator (the bottom number). Example 3/2

What are simple or reduced fractions?

Simple or reduced fractions are fractions whose top number (numerator) and bottom number (denominator) cannot be any smaller, while still being a whole number. That is to say, the number can no longer be divided by any number other than one while still being a whole number. 1/3 is a good example of a fully reduced fraction.

What is the Least Common Multiple (LCM)?

The Least Common Multiple (LCM) of two or more numbers is the smallest number that is a multiple of each of the given numbers. For example, the LCM of 4 and 6 is 12.

What are rational numbers?

A rational number is any number that can be expressed as the fraction of two integers, such as 3/4, -5/2, or 0.75.

How do you convert a decimal to a fraction?

To convert a decimal to a fraction, write the decimal as a fraction with a denominator of 10, 100, or 1000 depending on the decimal places, then simplify. For example, 0.75 = 75/100 = 3/4 Reference our decimal to fraction converter page for a detailed breakdown..

What are rounding decimals?

Rounding decimals means adjusting a number to a given place value. For example, rounding 3.186 to two decimal places gives 3.19. Note that last digit which is 6 is closer to 10 than 1 so the digit before it which is 8 move up a value to 9.
