Put in a nutshell, a fraction is written in terms of two parts separated by a line in between: the number above the line is called the numerator and the number below the line is called the denominator. To solve this question, we can use the division method to get a decimal: simply divide the numerator 12 by the denominator 125 to get the decimal:
12 (numerator) ÷ 125 (denominator) = 0.096
That’s it! When you convert 12/125 to a decimal, 0.096 is your answer.
