Explanation:
1.0.5 is said as "five-tenths". This is because it is one place after the decimal (which is the tenths place).
2.It would then become five-tenths, written as: =510
3.You would then simplify the faction: =510=12
4.This is because five can go into itself once and goes into ten twice.
5.Another way of thinking about it is that five is exactly half of ten.
6.More mathematically,=510=55×2=55×12={{1×12=12
