Write the decimal number as a fraction
(over 1)
0.601 = 0.601 / 1

Multiplying by 1 to eliminate 3 decimal places
we multiply top and bottom by 3 10's

Numerator = N
N = 0.601 × 10 × 10 × 10 = 601
Denominator (D)
D = 1 × 10 × 10 × 10 = 1000

N / D = 601 / 1000

Simplifying our fraction

= 601/1000

Your answer is 601/1000 :D
