To convert decimals to fractions look to the place value of the last number in the decimal. Make this place value your denominator. Make the decimal number your numerator.
Ex. 0.166 becomes 166/1000 because the last 6 is in the thousandths place and the decimal is 0.166 so 166 becomes your numerator. We can then convert this to a fraction in lowest terms if we desire.
