Step-by-step solution

The problem

0.6875

  1. Write the digits over 10,000. 0.6875 has 4 decimal places, so put the digits (without the point) over 1 followed by 4 zeros.

    = \textcolor{#0b5c56}{\frac{6875}{10{,}000}}

  2. Simplify. Write both as prime factors:\begin{aligned} 6875 &= 5^{4} \times 11 \\[6pt] 10{,}000 &= 2^{4} \times 5^{4} \end{aligned}The factors they share give the greatest common factor (GCF): \displaystyle 5^{4} = 625. Divide the top and bottom by 625.

    = \frac{6875 \div 625}{10{,}000 \div 625} = \textcolor{#0b5c56}{\frac{11}{16}}

All the working together

\begin{aligned} &0.6875 \\[8pt] &= \frac{6875}{10{,}000} && \textcolor{#5b6660}{\textsf{over 10,000}} \\[8pt] &= \frac{6875 \div 625}{10{,}000 \div 625} && \textcolor{#5b6660}{\textsf{simplify}} \\[8pt] &= \textcolor{#0b5c56}{\frac{11}{16}}\end{aligned}
