a \\(\frac{23}{64}\\)
b \\(\frac{27}{64}\\)
c \\(\frac{13}{32}\\)
d \\(\frac{11}{32}\\)
Convert millimeters to decimal inches
$$
10.25 \text{ mm} \div 25.4 \text{ mm/inch} \approx 0.40354 \text{ inches}
$$
Convert decimal inches to fractional inches with a denominator of 64
$$
0.40354 \times 64 = 25.82656 \approx 26
$$
$$
\frac{26}{64} \text{ inches} = \frac{13}{32} \text{ inches}
$$
