Answer:

(3)/(8) Or 0.375

Explanation:

From the picture attached,

A circle is divided into 8 sections.

Out of which 3 sections have been shaded.

So the ratio of the shaded sections to the total number of sections will be,

3 : 8

Therefore, fraction representing the ratio will be =
(3)/(8)

And the decimal form of the fraction will be = 0.375
