Answer:


\Huge \boxed{\mathrm{ Rational }}

Explanation:

Rational numbers can be expressed as fractions with whole numbers as the numerator and the denominator.


\displaystyle (0.4)/(0.8)

Multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 10.


\displaystyle (4)/(8) =(1)/(2)

The result is a simplified fraction with both the numerator and the denominator being whole numbers. The result is rational.
