What is .167 as a fraction?

I know it’s a fairly common one, but I can’t work out which one it is, =)

Approximately 1/6th.
well start with 167/1000 and see if it’ll simplify.

Personally I can’t think of any common factors so 167/1000 is as simple as it’s going to get.

This is not a common fraction. But it will be close to 1/6th as 1/6th is .1666666666667 where the 6 is recurring. So perhaps it’s 1/6th rounded to 3 sig figs.

edit:

I have been checking and I can now confirm 167 is a prime number so 167/1000 is definitely irreducible.
167/1000
167/1000
multiply both numerator and denominator by 1000….

u ll get 167/1000
167/1000 =) can’t be simplified

if this was 0.1666666 recurring. and was only rounded to 3 decimal places then the fraction is 1 over 6.
A little bigger than 5/32 and a little smaller than 11/64.
