Answer: 0.65

Explanation: In order to write 13/20 as a decimal, we need to find a fraction equivalent to 13/20 with a 100 in the denominator. Notice that if we multiply both the numerator and denominator of 13/20 by 5, we get the equivalent fraction 65/100 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 65/100 as 0.65

Therefore, 13/20 is equivalent to 0.65.
