Step-by-step solution

The problem

0.65625
  1. Write the digits over 100,000. 0.65625 has 5 decimal places, so put the digits (without the point) over 1 followed by 5 zeros.

    = \textcolor{#0b5c56}{\frac{65{,}625}{100{,}000}}
  2. Simplify. Write both as prime factors:\begin{aligned} 65{,}625 &= 3 \times 5^{5} \times 7 \\[6pt] 100{,}000 &= 2^{5} \times 5^{5} \end{aligned}The factors they share give the greatest common factor (GCF): \displaystyle 5^{5} = 3125. Divide the top and bottom by 3125.

    = \frac{65{,}625 \div 3125}{100{,}000 \div 3125} = \textcolor{#0b5c56}{\frac{21}{32}}

All the working together

\begin{aligned} &0.65625 \\[8pt] &= \frac{65{,}625}{100{,}000} && \textcolor{#5b6660}{\textsf{over 100,000}} \\[8pt] &= \frac{65{,}625 \div 3125}{100{,}000 \div 3125} && \textcolor{#5b6660}{\textsf{simplify}} \\[8pt] &= \textcolor{#0b5c56}{\frac{21}{32}}\end{aligned}
