A simple way to find out what fraction that is, we can find what is the number that needs to be multiplied with 0.06 so we will have a whole number, and that number will be the denominator of that fraction. From a 0.06 we want to have a 6, so we can multiply it with 100 as per: 0.06*100=6

That means that 0.06=6/100

That fraction can be even more simple. Since both the numerator and the denominator can be divided by 2, in this case we will have: 

6/100 = 3/50

3/50 is a non dividable fraction and this is how you express 0.06 in its simplest form.
