When converting 4/5 to a decimal form, what is the equivalent?

  1. 0.5

  2. 0.6

  3. 0.8

  4. 0.4

The correct answer is: 0.8

To convert a fraction like 4/5 to its decimal equivalent, you divide the numerator by the denominator. Here, you take 4 (the numerator) and divide it by 5 (the denominator). Performing this calculation, you get 4 ÷ 5, which equals 0.8. This shows that 4/5 as a decimal is accurately represented by 0.8, which is why this option is correct. In decimal terms, this conversion demonstrates how fractions can express quantities in varying forms, allowing for easier calculations and comparisons in different contexts.
