Answer 1

To convert 6.125 cups to fraction form, we can write it as a mixed number: 6 + 0.125 cups.

However, we want to convert it to an improper fraction. There are 8 parts of 0.125 in a whole (since 1 divided by 0.125 is 8). So, we can multiply 0.125 by 8 to convert it to an improper fraction:

0.125 * 8 = 1

Therefore, the fraction form of 6.125 cups is 6 and 1/8 cups.
