falewman · Answer

(0.125)^2 = (125/1000)^2 = (1/8)^2 = 1/64

fameatop · Answer

0.125 = 1/8

Since LHS is (0.125)^2, we need raise the power of RHS by 2
i.e. (1/8)^2 = 1/64
Hence Answer is E

Abhishek009 · Answer

0.125 = \frac{1}{8}

So,  (0.125)^2 = ( \frac{1}{8} )^2

Or,  (0.125)^2 = \frac{1}{64}

Hence, answer will be (E)  \frac{1}{64}

Hi,

Although we would generally know that 0.125=1/8..
But say we do not know the choices should get us to our answer..

We are looking for a square..
So the fraction too should be a square of a fraction..
ONLY 1/16 and 1/64 are square.

Let's see these two now..
 \frac{1}{16}=\frac{(1}{4)}^2 ...
Now 1/4 is 0.25, but we are looking for 0.125, so 1/64 is the answer
