<U>Comment from student</U>: Ok, will do that how did. You get the answer because when i divided 0.60/0.40 I get 1.5? 
So how will you solve the one 0.80 to 2.00?


<pre>
<U>My response</U>: 1. I got the answer not because you did something.
                I got the answer because I know how to do it.

             2. {{{0.80/2.00}}} = {{{80/200}}} = {{{2/5}}}.
