To convert 0.16 into a fraction, consider that it represents 16 hundredths. Thus:

$$0.16 = \frac{16}{100}$$

Next, simplify the fraction by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 16 and 100, which is 4:

$$\frac{16 \div 4}{100 \div 4} = \frac{4}{25}$$

So, the simplest form of 0.16 as a fraction is ( \frac{4}{25} ).
