How to convert decimal to fraction
- Count the number of digits (d) to the right of the decimal point of the decimal number x.Example: 2.56 has 2 digits to the right of the decimal point, so d=2.
- Calculate the factor (f) for making the decimal number an 
    integer:f = 10dExample:
 f = 102 = 100
- Multiply and divide the decimal number x by the factor f:x × f / f = y / fExample:
 2.56 × 100 / 100 = 256 / 100
- Find the greatest common divisor (gcd) of the fraction.
    Example:
 gcd(256,100) = 4
- Reduce the fraction by dividing the numerator and 
    denominator by the gcd value:Example:
 256 / 100 = (256/4) / (100/4) = 64/25
