Assuming that the question can be represented thus: Show the fraction "3/8" in decimal figures. The fraction "1/2" = 0.5 in decimal figures. The fraction "1/4" (or, half of a half) = 0.25 in decimals. "1/8" (or, half of half a half) = 0.125 therefore the answer to the question. 3/8 = (0.125 x 3) = 0.375 I hope this helps you to understand the relationship between fractions and decimals.
