6.08 = 6.081

Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point:

As we have 2 numbers after the decimal point, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 100. So,

6.081 = (6.08 × 100)(1 × 100) = 608100.

Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the above fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) between them. In this case, GCD(608,100) = 4. So,

(608÷4)(100÷4) = 15225 when reduced to the simplest form.
