To convert the decimal 6.125 into a fraction, we can separate it into its whole number and decimal parts.

1. The whole number part is 6.
2. The decimal part is 0.125.

Next, we can convert 0.125 into a fraction. Since 0.125 is equivalent to 125/1000, we can simplify it:

\[
0.125 = \frac{125}{1000} = \frac{1}{8} \quad (\text{Dividing the numerator and denominator by 125})
\]

Now, we can combine the whole number and the fraction together:

\[
6.125 = 6 + 0.125 = 6 + \frac{1}{8} = 6 \frac{1}{8}
\]

Thus, the fractional form of 6.125 is:

\[
6 \frac{1}{8}
\]

So the answer is:
