Answer:

0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

In this exercise, we want to represent  the number of shots taken by Marlin as a decimal number

given that Marlin made 8 shots out of 10 shots

that is in fraction, it is 8/10

But in decimal, since we are dividing by  10 we will move one decimal place to the left that 0.8 (the zero is not really Important as it only represents a place value )

Hence the fraction of the shots Marlin made is 0.8
