Fiona starts at the beginning of a hiking trail and walks 4/5 of a mile. She counts the mileage markers that are placed every 1/10 of a mile along the trail. How many markers does she count?

she walks 4/5 which is the same as 8/10 (denominator and numerator both doubled)
if theyre placed at every tenth of a mile and she walks 8 tenths .. she would count 8 ??
