Final answer:

The fraction 5/26 is approximately 0.1923 when converted to a decimal and is 0.2 when rounded to the nearest tenth. None of the provided options accurately represent the rounded decimal 0.2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks which of the following numbers is equal to 5/26, to the nearest tenth. To find this, we need to first convert the fraction to a decimal and then round it to the nearest tenth.

Dividing 5 by 26 gives us approximately 0.1923. Now, rounding this to the nearest tenth, we get 0.2. Hence, the correct answer is:

  • a) 0: False
  • b) 0: False
  • c) 2: False
  • d) 5: True/False

However, none of the provided options accurately reflect the rounded decimal 0.2. Therefore, the correct answer would be: None of the above.
