Every digit to the right of the decimal point diminishes in value tenfold. i.e. 0.78 is 7tenths, 8 hundredths, or 78 hundreths. This would be written in fractional form as 78(numerator) over 100 (denominator) -78/100.

In general, to make a decimal into a fraction you put the digits in the number over 10^n = 100...0 (n 0s), where n is the number of decimal places (digits to the right of the decimal point).
So 0.78 = 78/100
5.12 = 512/100
0.123456 = 123,456/1,000,000
55.123 = 55,123/1,000
0.00345 = 345/100,000
and so on =)
