## How to Convert a Decimal to a Fraction
### Method
1. Write the decimal as a fraction over a power of 10 (e.g., 0.375 = 375/1000)
2. Simplify by dividing both numerator and denominator by their GCD
3. For example: 375/1000 → GCD(375, 1000) = 125 → 375/125 = 3, 1000/125 = 8 → **3/8**
This calculator uses a denominator of 10,000 for precision and then simplifies.
