Move both decimals one place to the right. This makes the divider (denominator) a whole number.

0.05
The reason is because you have to make the number bigger when you multiply. When you move the decimal to the right you make the number bigger, when you move it to the left you make it smaller. Therefore, when you divide you must move the decimal to the left.
