Step 2:

Next, we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 for each digit after the decimal point.
0.62192 x 100000/1 x 100000
  =  
62192/100000

Step 3:

Next, we find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for 62192 and 100000. Keep in mind a factor is just a number that divides into another number without any remainder.
The factors of 62192 are: 1 2 4 8 13 16 23 26 46 52 92 104 169 184 208 299 338 368 598 676 1196 1352 2392 2704 3887 4784 7774 15548 31096 62192
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 62192 and 100000 is: 16

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 16 in this case.
62192 ÷ 16/100000 ÷ 16
  =  
3887/6250


Great Work! We've just determined that 0.62192 as a fraction equals 62192/100000 or 3887/6250 in its simplest form.
