Answer 1

Check 0.125, which should result in 1/8 but results in 3/25.

The problem is that you have a built-in resolution in line 34 which is rather coarse. A better strategy would be to take the number as a string, split at the decimal point and treat the integral and fractional parts individually as integers.

Answer 2

Technically, it could be 333/1000 or 3333/10000 and so on. Why not those variations but the 33/100 variation instead? 1/3 is an aproximation.

Answer 3

Slick im currently doing a project and its better doing it with lowest mixed fraction
