Answer:

Exact form: 5/2

Decimal form: 2.5

Mixed number form: 2 and 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

when you divide a fraction you keep, change, flip

Equation: 5/8 ÷ 1/4

keep 5/8 the same

change the divide symbol into a multipulcation symbol

flip 1/4 the other way, so it's 4/1 (it's a whole number now)

then just multiply across

Equation now: 5/8 × 4/1

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected payoff for Ann is that she loses the game, this is because only 5 out of the 20 sections allow Ann to win money, this is only 25% of the spinner. Meaning that 75% of the spinner will cause Ann to lose the game. Rolling two times increases the odds that she will lose the game. Since the greatest probability is that Ann will land on a section that causes her to lose the game, then this is the expected payoff.
