First, to compare the two number, they have to be in the same form 
I'm going to convert 1/8 to a decimal (because its much easier than 0.127 to a fraction) 

1/8 in decimal form is .125 
.125 _ .127 

Since their tenths and hundredths digit are the same you look at their thousandths digit to see which is bigger. 

5<7, so 

.125 < .127 

Your answer is D
