To find the ratio of pink beets to red beets, we start by identifying the number of each.

  • Number of pink beets = 4
  • Number of red beets = 5

The ratio of pink beets to red beets can be calculated as follows:

\[ \text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Number of pink beets}}{\text{Number of red beets}} = \frac{4}{5} \]

Calculating the ratio:

\[ \frac{4}{5} = 0.80 \]

Now, rounding to the nearest hundredth, we have:

\[ 0.80 \]

Thus, the ratio of pink beets to red beets, represented as a decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth, is 0.80.

The correct answer is C) 0.80.
