<p>Numbers can be categorized into different types. Fraction is one of its kinds. It is always represented in the form of p/q, where p is the numerator and q is the denominator. A fraction represents a whole and a fractional part. Decimals represent the fractional part of numbers. For example, 1/2; in decimals, numbers are expressed with a decimal point (.), for example, 20.375. We are going to learn how to convert a decimal to a fraction.</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Firstly, any decimal<a>number</a>should be converted to a fraction for easy calculation. Here, 20.375 is the number. We separate the whole part (20) from the decimal part (0.375). The fraction becomes (20 + 0.375).</p>

10
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Convert the decimal part 0.375 to a fraction. As shown earlier, 0.375 = 375/1000. Simplify it by finding the GCD of 375 and 1000, which is 125. So, 375/1000 = 3/8.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Convert the decimal part 0.375 to a fraction. As shown earlier, 0.375 = 375/1000. Simplify it by finding the GCD of 375 and 1000, which is 125. So, 375/1000 = 3/8.</p>
11
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now, express the<a>whole number</a>20 as a fraction, which is 20/1. To add these, convert 20/1 to have the same<a>denominator</a>as 3/8: 20/1 × 8/8 = 160/8.</p>
11
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now, express the<a>whole number</a>20 as a fraction, which is 20/1. To add these, convert 20/1 to have the same<a>denominator</a>as 3/8: 20/1 × 8/8 = 160/8.</p>
12
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Add the fractions: 160/8 + 3/8 = 163/8.</p>
12
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Add the fractions: 160/8 + 3/8 = 163/8.</p>
13
<p><strong>Thus, 20.375 can be written as a fraction 163/8.</strong></p>
13
<p><strong>Thus, 20.375 can be written as a fraction 163/8.</strong></p>
