The fill valve in the tank is the type that has a round float the slides up and down on a shaft, it has a diaphragm in it that gets stiff or plugged and needs to be replaced.

Turn the water off, in the tank, hold the bottom of the shaft so it doesn't break and turn the top part 1/8 th turn counter clockwise. The diaphragm or washer is where the two pieces separate. Black, about the size of a quarter. New one is about $3.
