To express 6.125 cups as a fraction, we can convert the decimal to a fraction by moving the decimal point three places to the right. So, 6.125 can be written as 6125/1000. However, we want the fraction to be simplified. Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 125 gives us 49/8. Therefore, the fraction form of 6.125 cups is 49/8.

Sorry for the confusion.
Among the options given, the fraction form of 6.125 cups is 6 125/1,000.
To express 6.125 in fraction form, we need to convert the decimal to a fraction. Here's how you can do it:
Step 1: Count the decimal places after the whole number. In this case, there are three decimal places after 6.
Step 2: Write down the number without the decimal point as the numerator. So, the numerator will be 6125.
Step 3: Write down the denominator as the number 1 followed by as many zeros as the number of decimal places. Since there are three decimal places, the denominator will be 1000.
Step 4: Simplify the fraction, if possible. In this case, the fraction cannot be simplified because there are no common factors between the numerator (6125) and the denominator (1000).
So, the fraction form of 6.125 is 6125/1000.
