$\frac{10}{25} = \frac{2}{5} = 0.4$ $10/25 = 2/5 = 0.4$

Explanation:

A fraction that has its denominator as a power of 10 can be written as a decimal.

Make an equivalent fraction...

$\frac{10}{25} \times \frac{4}{4} = \frac{40}{100} = \frac{4}{10}$ $10/25 xx 4/4 = 40/100 = 4/10$

$\frac{4}{10} = 0.4$ $4/10= 0.4$

We could also have simplified the fraction first

$\frac{10 \div 5}{25 \div 5} = \frac{2}{5}$ $(10div5)/(25div5) = 2/5$

$\frac{2}{5} \times \frac{2}{2} = \frac{4}{10} = 0.4$ $2/5 xx2/2 = 4/10 = 0.4$
