• A. 0.5
• B. 0.25
• C. 1.4
• D. 0.75

Answer 1

The correct option is B 0.25

$\text{Number of pizza slices = 4}$
$\text{Pizza slice eaten by Lucy = 1}$

$\text{Fraction of pizza eaten by Lucy =}\frac{1}{4}$

$\text{To convert this fraction into a}$ $\text{decimal value, we will multiply}$ $\text{the numerator and the denominator}$ $\text{with 25.}$

$⟹\frac{1\times 25}{4\times 25}=\frac{25}{100}$

$⟹\frac{25}{100}=0.25$

$\text{Hence, the decimal value of}\frac{1}{4}\text{is 0.25.}$
