I guess you want to find the best fraction in 32nd of inch for a given value.
- Get your value: say 0.7
- Multiply by 32: 0.7 * 32 = 22.4
- round to closest integer: 22
your fraction is 22/32
after that you can reduce the fraction by dividing each part with the greatest common divider: GCD(22, 32) = 2
Reduced fraction is: (22/2) / (32/2) = 11/16
