As you can see in the image, there are 4 whole rectangle's, each divided into two halves. That give's us 8 total parts to work with. Knowing that we need to find 5/8 of 4, simply fill in 5 of those parts. As two parts equal one whole, and one part equals one half, we can determine that 5/8 of 4 converts to 2 1/2, or 2.5.

Equation:   of=multiplication

5/8*4=2 1/2

5*4=2020/8

20/8 as a mixed number is 2 4/8, which simplifies to 2 1/2.
