Next, we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 for each digit after the decimal point.
0.40128 x 100000/1 x 100000
  =  
40128/100000

Step 3:

Next, we find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for 40128 and 100000. Keep in mind a factor is just a number that divides into another number without any remainder.
The factors of 40128 are: 1 2 3 4 6 8 11 12 16 19 22 24 32 33 38 44 48 57 64 66 76 88 96 114 132 152 176 192 209 228 264 304 352 418 456 528 608 627 704 836 912 1056 1216 1254 1672 1824 2112 2508 3344 3648 5016 6688 10032 13376 20064 40128
The factors of 100000 are: 1 2 4 5 8 10 16 20 25 32 40 50 80 100 125 160 200 250 400 500 625 800 1000 1250 2000 2500 3125 4000 5000 6250 10000 12500 20000 25000 50000 100000
The GCF of 40128 and 100000 is: 32

Step 4:

To simplify the fraction, we divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF), which we calculated in the previous step. The GCF value is 32 in this case.
40128 ÷ 32/100000 ÷ 32
  =  
1254/3125


Great Work! We've just determined that 0.40128 as a fraction equals 40128/100000 or 1254/3125 in its simplest form.

Frequently asked math questions, including decimals and fractions

Read the following section to help deepen your understanding of basic math concepts.

What are simple or reduced fractions?

Simple or reduced fractions are fractions whose top number (numerator) and bottom number (denominator) cannot be any smaller, while still being a whole number. That is to say, the number can no longer be divided by any number other than one while still being a whole number. 1/3 is a good example of a fully reduced fraction.

What is an exponent?

An exponent refers to the number of times a number (the base) is multiplied by itself. For example, 2³ means 2 × 2 × 2 = 8.

What is a square root?

The square root of a number is a value when multiplied by itself, gives that number. For example, the square root of 9 is 3 because 3 × 3 = 9.

What is a median?

The median is the mid value in a set of numbers when the numbers are arranged in order. If there are two middle numbers, the median is the average of those both those numbers.

How do you convert a fraction to a decimal?

A fraction can be converted to a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator. For example, 3/4 = 3 ÷ 4 = 0.75. Check out our fraction page for lots of examples on how to convert fractions into decimals.

What is a fraction bar?

A fraction bar is the horizontal line that separates the numerator and denominator in a fraction. It also represents division. For example, in 2/4, the fraction bar means 2 divided by 4.
