Question

explain how 1\4 is the same as 0.25

Answer 1

well, 1 goes into 4, 4 times.
and 25 goes into 100 4 times as well.
.25 *4 is 1. so, that's my best way of explaining it

Answer 2

If you divide 1 and 4, you get 0.25, or 1/4 is the fraction form for 0.25

Answer 3

If one number is the same as another number, then both numbers are equal. To test this set

1/4 = 0.25

1 = 4(0.25)
1 = 1
