How to switch fraction to whole number dimensions?

Hello, why does Revit switches my dimension input to a fraction? For example, I input 6'-7.2" and click enter then it displays 6'-7 51/256". I don't like it I want to remain as 6'-7.2". I provided pictures so you can take a look. Thanks

I do not believe that the currently available units in Revit allow for such formatting...Is that even a conventional format?

 

The available unit formats are 

  • Feet + Decimal
  • Inches + Decimal
  • Feet + Fractional inches  (what you are currently using and which does not allow for decimal)
