To convert 0.75 to a fraction, we can express it as:

\[ 0.75 = \frac{75}{100} \]

Now, we simplify \(\frac{75}{100}\) by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 75 and 100, which is 25.

Dividing the numerator and denominator by 25:

\[ \frac{75 \div 25}{100 \div 25} = \frac{3}{4} \]

Thus, 0.75 converted to a fraction in simplest form is:

3/4

So the correct response is:

3/4
