Step by step process:
You must convert a fraction of 4/5 to another fraction with a denominator and unknown numerator. The unknown numerator is a variable, so we will call that x:
4/5 = x/10
Now, since x is the numerator of a fraction, it is being divided by the denominator. You must get rid of the denominator to make x by itself. To do this, you need to multiply both sides by the denominator:
4/5 = x/10
*10 *10
(4/5)*10 = (x/10)*10
x/10 is "x divided by 10", and here we are multiplying it by 10, therefore x divided by 10 and then multiplied by 10 cancels our the 10s, and you end up with:
(4/5)*10 = x
All you have to do now is simplify. 4 divided by 5 and then multiplied by 10.
4/5 = 0.8
0.8 * 10 = 8.0
x = 8.
4/5 = 8/10

the fraction is 8/10.
what you do to the denominator you do to the numerator. you multiply 5 by 2 to get 10 so you multiply 4 by 2 to get 8.

Since the denominator is 10, and it is twice 5..therefore we also multiply 2 to the numerator...we have
8/10

4/5 = x/10
5x = 40
isolate x by dividng 5 to both sides
x = 8

let x be the unknown number...
4/5 = x/10
5x = 40
x = 8
Your fraction would be..8/10
