Answer:

0.8

Explanation:

In this question you need to translate a fraction into a decimal.

Firstly you must focus on discovering the digit that you divide 100 by to get 5

100 / 5 = 20

Next, you must multiply both the denominator and multiplier by 20

4 x 20 = 80

5 x 20 = 100

This is 80%

We can then divide 80 by 100 to give us 0.8
