Answer 1

The fraction that is equal to 0.8 is 5/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are given the decimal value 0.8 and we need to choose the fraction that is equal to it. The possible options are:

1. a) 5/4
2. b) 5/6
3. c) 3/4
4. d) 2/3

To find the equivalent fraction, we need to express 0.8 as a fraction with a numerator and denominator. To do this, we write 0.8 as 8/10. Then, we simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 2. This gives us 4/5.

Comparing 4/5 with the given options, we can see that the fraction 4/5 is equivalent to option a) 5/4. Therefore, the correct answer is a) 5/4.
