Answer 2

For this case we have the following decimal number:

0.625

We must convert to a fraction.

If we multiply the decimal value by 1000 we have:
`0.625 * 1000 = 625`

Then, we can rewrite the decimal number as:

`0.625 = \frac {625} {1000}`

We simplify the fraction:

`\frac {625} {1000} = \frac {125} {200} = \frac {25} {40} = \frac {5} {8}`

Finally we have to:

`0.625 = \frac {5} {8}`

Answer:

`0.625 = \frac {5} {8}`
