Question

Hi! I am Ashley and I have a question. Here is what is says: Explain how knowing that 5 divided by 8 = 0.625 helps you write the decimal for 4 and five eighths. This is very confusing to me. I did not know what category it was in so I just put Other. -Thanks! :)

Answer 1

The decimal for 4 and five eighths is equal 4+ 5 divided by 8. Thus if we know that 5 divided by 8 = 0.625 than we need to add 4
4+0.625=4.625
