Separate it into two different shapes
Ok so
Knowing that 1 metre consists of 100cm,
You can conclude and agree that 8 cm is 8/100, correct?
Now, when converting fractions to decimals, it makes it easier out of 100 or 10. Since it's out of 100 already, you take the amount of zero's in 100 (two) and you move the decimal point (2) places to the <em /><u>left<em /></u>
This gives you 0.08
So the fraction is 8/100, which then can be simplified to 4/50, then to 2/25
and the decimal is 0.08.

Hope this helps and have a good day :D
