Once you have tried it a few times it becomes quite simple really. However, once you have understood it, instead of working it out every time just ask Siri, Alexa or whoever and they will tell you.
4.8 - 1 = 3.8 = 3.8/1
Create the decimal fraction by multiplying it by 100 = 380/100
Then you just simplify the fraction by dividing both top and bottom by the number.
380/100 > 38/10 > 19/5 is the final fractional odd as it cannot be simplified any further.
Generally decimal odds will run to 2 decimal places so multiplying by 100 creates what is known as a decimal fraction from there you simplfy it as short as it can go, known as a common fraction.

So 0.8/1 > 80/100
Then you simplify the fraction
80/100 > 8/10 > 4/5 which is the...
Just divide the first number by the second will get you the decimal equivelent then add 1 to get the decimal odds.
7/2 > 7 divided by 2 > 3.5 > add 1 to give you the decimal odds of 4.5
100/30 > 100 divided by 30 > 3.33 > add 1 to give you the decimal odds of 4.33
2/7 > 2 divided by 7 >...
With transposed odds say 4/5 which equates to 1.8
