Need to know how to change each decimal to a fraction ...
.625 = ??? and how do you figure it?
625/1000
you do it by seeing how many digits are after the decimal point and you add that many zeros to one.
Following up Claire's answer, you need to know how many digits are in the decimal part of the number (ie to the right of the decimal point. eg. if you had 0.25 for example that would be 2 tenths + 5 hundredths (or 25/100) . This would then cancel to a quarter (1/4) as both numerator and denominator are divisible by 25 Clarissa.If there is ONE digit after the decimal point IT is put over 10 as a fraction (as it would represent the number of tenths that it is). Two digits would be put over 100, 3 over 1000, 4 over 10000, etc,Clarissa. It may be then that you can cancel down by means of factorising both numerator (top of fraction) and denominator (bottom part of fraction beneath the quotient line). I hope that this has helped.

To convert the decimal .625 to a fraction, follow these steps:
Step 1: Write down the decimal as a fraction over 1.
.625 = 0.625/1
Step 2: Remove the decimal point by multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by 10 raised to the power of the number of decimal places. In this case, there are three decimal places, so multiply by 10^3.
0.625/1 * 10^3/10^3 = 625/1000
Step 3: Simplify the fraction by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and the denominator. In this case, both 625 and 1000 can be divided by 125.
625/1000 = (625 ÷ 125) / (1000 ÷ 125) = 5/8
So, .625 can be expressed as the fraction 5/8.
