One-eighth
Eight-tenths
Four-fifths
Eight-ninths

Answer 1

Four-fifths (4/5)

hope it helps!

Answer 2

Four-fifths

Explanation:

To convert this decimal into a fraction remove the decimal and divide by 10, so the new fraction looks like 8/10. You do this because the eight is in the tenths place, so it literally translates to eight-tenths. However, fractions need to be in the simplest form so you divide both the numerator and denominator by 2 to get the final answer 4/5 or four-fifths.
