For example:
decimal: 0.4
What it means is that 4 is divided by 10.
i.e. 4/10=2/5.
Another one:
0.625
means 625/1000( or 625 divided by 1000)
(always one more 0 than the number)
and therefore
625/1000=5/8.

How can the word form of a fraction help you write the fraction as a decimal?
In general, the word form of a fraction tells you what you can divide to generate the equivalent fraction. For instance, three fourths can be converted to a decimal by completing the problem "three divided by four." If the denominator is a multiple of ten, the word form of a fraction can tell you how many places are to the right of a decimal, as in the case 37/100 = "thirty-seven hundredths" = 0.37. Since the denominator is hundredths, you know that the decimal has two places to its right.
