Answer:


(53)/(125)

Explanation:

to make a fraction, that equals a specific hundredth or thousandth, you have to divide it by 1 plus how many zeroes you need to the point where you an excess 0.

ex. 0.685

=
(685)/(1000)

ex 2. 0.5645


(5645)/(10000)

for 0.424, you'll have to divide by 1000


(424)/(1000)

now you have to simplify :)


(424)/(1000) =
(106)/(250) =
(53)/(125)

Hope this helps! If you have any questions, feel free to ask :)
