What do we get when decimal 0.5 is converted into a fraction?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 5/10

The governing concept is place value in a terminating decimal. The number 0.5 has one digit after the decimal point, so it means five tenths and can be written directly as 5/10. This fraction simplifies by dividing numerator and denominator by 5: 5/10 = 1/2. Because the question asks what is obtained when the decimal is converted and includes 5/10 as an option, option B is the intended correct answer; 1/2 is its simplest equivalent form. Option A equals 0.2, option C equals 0.05, and option D equals 2, so none represents 0.5. The general method is to remove the decimal point and use 10, 100, or another power of ten according to the number of decimal places, then simplify.
