0.9375 as a Fraction of an Inch

Answer
15/16 in
0.9375 in = 15/16 in (1/64 in) = 23.8125 mm

0.9375 inches equals 15/16 inch, the last fractional step before a full inch mark on a tape measure or drill index. It appears as a wrench size for certain large bolt heads and as a clearance or tap drill size just shy of one inch. Sitting exactly between 7/8 in (0.875 in) and 1 in, it reads as 15/16 in at 1/16, 1/32, and 1/64 precision, though it rounds up to a full inch at the coarser 1/8 in precision.

How the conversion works

  1. Split the decimal. Separate the whole-number part from the decimal part. 0.9375 has no whole-number portion, so the entire value converts into the fraction.
  2. Multiply by precision. Multiply the decimal by the denominator you want, 16, 32, or 64, then round to the nearest whole number. 0.9375 × 16 = 15 exactly, with nothing left to round.
  3. Simplify. Reduce the fraction using the greatest common divisor of numerator and denominator. 15 and 16 share no common factor, so 15/16 is already in lowest terms.
  4. Verify in mm. Multiply the decimal inches by 25.4 to check the metric value: 0.9375 × 25.4 = 23.8125 mm.
