What is the fractional form of -0.625 on the number line?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: -5/8

Answer: A, −5/8. Convert the terminating decimal to a fraction by using 1000 as the denominator because there are three digits after the decimal point: −0.625=−625/1000. Reduce the fraction by dividing numerator and denominator by 125: −625÷125=−5 and 1000÷125=8. Thus −0.625=−5/8. The negative sign must remain because the number lies to the left of zero on the number line. B is −3/8=−0.375, C is −7/8=−0.875, and D is −1/8=−0.125; none equals −0.625. A useful check is to convert 5/8: 1/8=0.125, so 5/8=0.625, and then restore the negative sign. Do not drop the sign while simplifying.
