To convert the decimal 0.15 to a fraction, follow these steps:
1. Write down the decimal divided by 1:
\[
0.15 = \frac{0.15}{1}
\]
2. To eliminate the decimal point, multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 100:
\[
\frac{0.15 \times 100}{1 \times 100} = \frac{15}{100}
\]
3. Simplify the fraction by finding the greatest common divisor of 15 and 100, which is 5:
\[
\frac{15 \div 5}{100 \div 5} = \frac{3}{20}
\]
Thus, the decimal 0.15 can be expressed as the fraction \(\frac{3}{20}\).
