We can change 7/16 into a decimal by dividing 7 by 16.  A fraction is really a division problem.  If you carry out the division, you find that
7/16 = .4325
so the whole measurement is
57' 11.4325"
Now converting decimals to fractions is easier...
14.81' means 14 and 81 hundredths and that's how we write...
14 81/100 feet
If we can reduce, we must, but here we cannot...
