secton 7 problem 4

.125 is equal to the fraction 1/8
the Work:

Since there are 3 digits in 125, the very last digit is the "1000th" decimal place.

So we can just say that .125 is the same as 125/1000.


125/1000 is not in simplest form we divide the GCD or the greatest common denominator in this case it is 125. 125/125=1 and 125/1000=8 so final answer is 1/8
