Step-by-step explanation:
Decimals are way of writing fractions which have a power of 10 in the denominator. They will be 10,100,1000,10,000 ,and so on.
in ⅖ make the denominator 10.
[tex] \frac{2}{5} \times \frac{2}{2} = \frac{2 \times 2}{5 \times 2} = \frac{4}{10} = 0.4[/tex]
Note that
[tex] \frac{2}{2} = 1[/tex]
and multiplying any number by 1 does not change its value. However, some fractions have denominators which cannot be made into a power of 10 .In that case, divide the numerator by the denominator to get a decimal.
[tex] \frac{2}{5} = 2 \div 5 = 0.4[/tex]
