2/5 = 4/10 = 0.425=410=0.4

Explanation:

Decimals are a way of writing fractions which have powers of 10 as denominators.

0.5 = 5/100.5=510

0.17 = 17/1000.17=17100

0.375 = 375/10000.375=3751000

So if you can write a fraction with a denominator of 10,100,1000,10,100,1000, etc you have the decimal.

2/5 xx 2/2 = 4/10 = 0.425×22=410=0.4
