Question

Represent the decimal written on the gray box in fractional form.

• A. $\frac{1}{5}$
• B. $\frac{2}{5}$
• C. $\frac{3}{5}$
• D. $\frac{4}{5}$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $\frac{4}{5}$

$\text{The decimal value written on the gray}$ $\text{box is 0.8.}$

$\text{To convert this decimal into a}$ $\text{fraction, we will remove the decimal}$ $\text{point and divide the denominator}$ $\text{with 10.}$

$⟹0.8=\frac{8}{10}$

$\text{Let's convert the fraction into its}$ $\text{simplest form.}$

$⟹\frac{8}{10}=$ $\frac{8÷2}{10÷2}=\frac{4}{5}$

$\text{Hence, we can represent 0.8 as}\frac{4}{5}\text{.}$
