Step 2: Count how many decimal places are in the number. There are three decimal places.
Step 3: To convert to a fraction, write the number without the decimal over 1 followed by as many zeros as there are decimal places. This gives us 125/1000.
Step 4: Simplify the fraction 125/1000. Find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 125 and 1000, which is 125.
Step 5: Divide both the numerator and the denominator by the GCD (125). This gives us 1/8.
