Answer
$4\frac{2}{250}$ = $4\frac{1}{125}$
Work Step by Step
We are given the number 4.008 and are asked to convert it into a fraction in simplest terms. The numerator will be the digits to the right of the decimal point, or 8. The denominator will be 1000, because the rightmost digit of the decimal is in the thousandths place. The whole number portion will stay the same.
$4.008=4\frac{8}{1000}$
Simplify.
$4\frac{8}{1000}=4\frac{8\div4}{1000\div4}=4\frac{2}{250}$= $4\frac{1}{125}$
