Which of the following decimal arrays correctly converts the fractions 5/8, 12/40, 2/5, and 3/16 to decimals?

0.66 0.40 0.40 0.19
0.63 0.30 0.40 0.17
0.63 0.30 0.40 0.19
0.63 0.40 0.30 0.19
0.60 0.32 0.50 0.18
0.62 0.35 0.45 0.21

The correct answer is: 0.63 0.30 0.40 0.19

The conversion of fractions to their decimal equivalents involves dividing the numerator by the denominator. For the fractions provided: 5/8 converts to 0.625. 12/40 simplifies to 3/10, which equals 0.3. 2/5 converts to 0.4. 3/16 converts to approximately 0.1875. Based on these conversions, we can see that the correct decimal values would be rounded appropriately. The fraction 5/8 rounds to 0.63 when considering the context of the possible answers. The fraction 12/40 rounds to 0.30, 2/5 to 0.40, and 3/16 rounds to 0.19. The decimal array that matches correctly with these conversions is the one that lists 0.63, 0.30, 0.40, and 0.19, which shows a precise understanding of the necessary rounding for this context. This aligns with the values shown in choice C, making it the most accurate representation of the decimal conversions for the specified fractions.
