[tex] \frac{12}{75} = \frac{3*4}{3*25}= \frac{4}{25} = \frac{16}{100} =.16[/tex]

So all you do is put it as a number over 100, and then put that number behind the decimal. (BEWARE! If you have a value over 10 or 1000 or any other number of that sort, then it will work too. Just make sure the number's place corresponds to the value it is "over" ---> .1 is in the 10ths place, so it would be [tex] \frac{1}{10} [/tex]. .245 is in the 1000ths place so it would be [tex] \frac{245}{1000} [/tex])

12/75. First,You Divide The Numerator By The Denominator.Since 75 Can't Go Into 12 Evenly,You Have To Make 12 Into 12.0.Then,You Say"75 Can Go Into 12.0 1 Time" Which'll Be 45 Left Over.Then,You Add Another 0 Behind 45,Which'll Be 450.Then You See How Many Times 75 Can Go Into 450,Which Is 6 Times Evenly.The Answer Is 0.16.To Check Your Work,You'd Multiply 75 by 0.16,Which Gets You Back to 12.
