Answer:

i like .2 better.

Explanation:

when you use decimals it is easier to use them with different numbers. but if you use fractions, it is limited on what you can add or subtract them with depending on what you are doing.

I hope that is what you are looking for, i dont fully understand the question.

Answer: I like the 0.2x10=2 the best because because not only it is the correct one when it comes to the conversion between the decimal and fraction, but it feels better to count up from the tenth place to get to the whole number using the decimal rather than the fraction.
