Question

Which statement about 5 multiplied by 1/8 must be true?

Answer 1

Answer:

The product is less than 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since $5\times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{5}{1}\times \frac{1}{8}=\frac{5}{8}$

and $\frac{5}{8}= 0.625$

which is less than 1, therefore we can say that the product is less than 1.
