To find the quotient of 0.45 divided by 8, you can perform the division as follows:
\[
0.45 \div 8 = 0.05625
\]
Now, let's convert 0.05625 into a fraction:
\[
0.05625 = \frac{5625}{100000}
\]
To simplify this fraction, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by 125:
\[
\frac{5625 \div 125}{100000 \div 125} = \frac{45}{800}
\]
Now, to further simplify \( \frac{45}{800} \):
\[
\frac{45 \div 5}{800 \div 5} = \frac{9}{160}
\]
Now let's check the options given:
- \( \frac{8}{43} \) is approximately 0.186.
- \( 5 \frac{3}{7} = 5.42857 \).
- \( 5 \frac{3}{8} = 5.375 \).
- \( 5 \frac{3}{5} = 5.6 \).
None of the options seem to be equivalent to the computed result of \( 0.05625 \) or \( \frac{9}{160} \).
It appears that none of the provided options are correct as the quotient of \( 0.45 \div 8 = 0.05625 \). If you need further assistance or clarification, feel free to ask!
