Applications

Useful for construction, woodworking, and engineering where measurements are often in fractions of an inch, and for simplifying math homework.

The Algorithm

Converts the decimal to a fraction (e.g., 0.75 = 75/100) and then uses the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) to reduce it to its simplest form (3/4).

Fun Fact: Infinite repeating decimals (like 0.333...) can also be represented as fractions (1/3), but they require a different formula involving '9s' in the denominator.
