How do you switch/change a decimal to a fraction????
Not all decimals can be changed to fractions (well, fractions of integers I should say).
For finite, say, 0.35245, rewrite it as 35245/100000 and reduce.
For repeating, there are several methods, but here is a way: 0.000123123123...
The repeating part is 123, write it over an equal number of 9's: 123/999. There are 3 zeros in front, so divide by 1000: 123/(999*1000).
If you have a number in front, add it and your new fraction as you normally would.
