can you help me solve 50/80000
------------
It's not solving, just reducing or simplifying.
50/80000
You do the same operation to the numerator and the denominator.
Divide both by 10
--> 5/8000
Divide both by 5
--> 1/1600
That's all you do as a fraction.
You can use a calculator (or other method) to get 0.000625
