Here are the steps:

1. 0.312 is the same as 312/1000

2. Find the GCF of 312,1000 and that would be 8

3. divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCF (which is 8) so 312/8/1000/8.

4. Lastly simplify. And the answer is 39/125.

1000

Since it reads 0 and 312 thousandths, you would simply place 1000 as the denominator. if it reads hundredths, put 100 as the denominator. if it reads tenths, put 10 as the denominator.
