Step 1: Understand What 0.25 Means

The number 0.25 is called a decimal. It means you have 25 hundredths- or in other words, 25 out of 100.

Why?

Because:

The first number after the decimal point is tenths.

The second number after the decimal point is hundredths.

So, 0.25 = 25 hundredths = 25/100.

Step 2: Write It as a Fraction

We now know:

0.25 = 25/100

That’s your fraction form, but we can make it even simpler!

Step 3: Simplify the Fraction

Fractions can often be simplified by dividing both the top number (numerator) and the bottom number (denominator) by the same number.

Let’s simplify 25/100:

Both 25 and 100 can be divided by 25.

So:

25 ÷ 25 = 1

100 ÷ 25 = 4

Final Answer: 0.25 = 1/4
