Hint: All the values which are in the form of $\dfrac{p}{q}$ are called fraction or rational numbers where $q \ne 0$. Fractions are divided into part one part is the numerator $\left( p \right)$ and the other part is the denominator $\left( q \right)$.

Complete step by step solution:
Given that –
Decimal Value $3.7$
We know that when we remove a decimal point then we get zeroes in the denominator of that number which is equal to the numbers which are present after the decimal point in numbers so here we also do the same we will remove the decimal point and we get the zeroes in the denominator
Now we will remove the decimal point from $3.7$
Now we get one zero in the denominator, after that the fraction is $\dfrac{{37}}{{10}}$
Which is the desired value which we want by converting the given decimal value

Therefore the fraction of $3.7$ is the $\dfrac{{37}}{{10}}$

Additional Information:
Always $a = bq + r$ where $0 \leqslant r < b$ Where $a = $ Dividend, $b = $ Divisor, $q = $ Quotient, $r = $ Remainder , because of this we will take a point in our divide so we add some extra zeroes for dividing. For changing any fraction value in the percentage, we need multiply fraction by $100$ then get the percentage value of that fraction and by dividing any percentage from $100$ we get a fractional value of that percentage value.

Note: When we divide any number if the dividend is less than the divisor then we add zeros in the last of the dividend so we can divide easily and put a point before the quotient. For changing any decimal point value into a percentage, first, we have changed it into the fraction then by multiplying it with $100$ we get the percentage value.
