Answer: 0.48

Step-by-step explanation: In order to write 12/25 as a decimal, we need to find a fraction equivalent to 12/25 with a 100 in the denominator. Notice that if we multiply both the numerator and denominator of 12/25 by 4, we get the equivalent fraction 48/100 which we can now write as a decimal. The hundredths place is two places to the right of the decimal point so we can write 48/100 as 0.48.

Therefore, 12/25 is equivalent to 0.48.
