To verify the accuracy of your answers, let me go through each question and explain the steps to get the correct answer:
1. Express 5/8 as a decimal:
To convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator (the top number) by the denominator (the bottom number). In this case, 5 ÷ 8 = 0.625. Therefore, the answer is 0.625, not 0.875.
2. Express 1 1/20 as a decimal:
To convert a mixed number to a decimal, you first convert the fraction part into a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator. In this case, 1 ÷ 20 = 0.05. Then, you add the whole number part to the decimal. Therefore, 1 1/20 as a decimal is 1.05, not 1.2.
3. Express 2.6 as a mixed number:
To convert a decimal to a mixed number, you separate the whole number part from the decimal portion. In this case, the whole number part is 2. The decimal portion, 0.6, can be converted to a fraction by placing the decimal part over the appropriate place value. For example, 0.6 can be written as 6/10, which can be simplified to 3/5. Therefore, 2.6 as a mixed number is 2 3/5, not 2 6/10.
I hope this helps you review your answers accurately.
1 and 2 are wrong.
You need to divide the numerator by the denominator to express a fraction as a decimal.
3 is correct.
