0.016 as a fraction in simplest form
puteri [66]
0.016 as a fraction is 16/1000 and in simplest form it is 2/125.

An easy way to figure out the fraction of a decimal is by the decimal places. As we can see, there are four numbers in our decimal (0.016). 

The first decimal place = ones 
The second decimal place = tenths
The third decimal place = hundredths 
The fourth decimal place = thousandths

We stop at the thousandths place, so basically, take 16 and put it over 1000, which looks like 16/1000.
