Answer:

Explanation:

Since we converted 3 1/8 to 25/8, this is actually (25/8)/100. This simplifies to: (25/8)/100 = 25/(8*100) = 1/8 * 25/100 = 1/8 * 1/4 or 1/(4*8) = 1/32. A simplest fraction is a fraction of the form a/b where a and b share no factors other than 1. And 1/32 is the simplest fraction you can get.
