Question

What is -0.8 as a fraction?

Answer 1

Answer:

$-\frac{4}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

There is not much that can be done to figure out how to write 0.8 as a fraction, except to literally use what the decimal portion of your number, the .8, means.

Since there are 1 digits in 8, the very last digit is the "10th" decimal place.

So we can just say that .8 is the same as 8/10.

The fraction is not reduced to lowest terms. We can reduce this fraction to lowest  terms by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2.

Why divide by 2? 2 is the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD)  or Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of the numbers 8 and 10.

So, this fraction reduced to lowest terms is  4/5

So your final answer is: 0.8 can be written as the fraction 8/10 simplified to 4/5
