It's probably a simple issue but I can't figure it out

If I do 3/(4.)  I get .7500000000 .  Why doesn't maple drop the zeros? 

Is there a default so that when I divide a fraction like 3/8 or 1/4 and get .375 and .25 without the extra zeros?  or is it always standard for maple to tack on those extra zeros?
