What is 0.4 as a simplified fraction

mestny [16]

Answer: 2/5

Step-by-step explanation: Using the place value chart, we can see that the decimal 0.4 is four tenths, so we can write 0.4 as the fraction 4/10.

Notice however that 4/10 is not in lowest terms so we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 4 and 10 which is 2.

So if we divide the numerator and the denominator by 2, we get the equivalent fraction 2/5.

Therefore, 0.4 can be written as the fraction 2/5 which is in lowest terms.

Well, let's look at the answer choices.
A) If you want to fond the total cost of two sweaters you would add, not divide. So this isn't it.
B) To find out how much older someone is you would subtract. So this isn't it either.
C) To find out how many desks are needed you would multiply, since you know you need 3 rows of desks with 7 students each (3 x 7). Again, not it.
D) To find out how many pencils each student would get, you'd divide. You would divide 56 by 9. So your answer is D.
