Which fraction correctly represents 0.375 on the number line?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 3/8

The governing concept is conversion of a terminating decimal into an equivalent fraction. Since 0.375 has three digits after the decimal point, write it as 375/1000. Simplifying by the common factor 125 gives 375 ÷ 125 = 3 and 1000 ÷ 125 = 8, so 0.375 = 3/8. Therefore the point representing 0.375 is also the point representing 3/8, and option A is correct. Option C, 5/8, equals 0.625; option D, 8/3, is greater than 2; and option B, 37/5, equals 7.4. These values clearly do not represent the given point. Keeping place value correct before reducing prevents errors.
