Determine your answer in decimals.

• A. 0.4
• B. 0.3
• C. 0.6
• D. 0.1

Answer 1

The correct option is B 0.3

$\text{Total number of marbles = 20}$
$\text{Number of yellow marbles = 6}$

$\text{Fraction of yellow marbles =}\frac{6}{20}$

$⟹\frac{6}{20}=\frac{6÷2}{20÷2}=\frac{3}{10}$

$⟹\frac{3}{10}=0.3$

$\text{Hence, the decimal value of}\frac{6}{20}\text{is 0.3.}$
