ANSWER

[tex] \frac{38}{10} [/tex]

EXPLANATION

We want to write
[tex]3.8[/tex]

in the form
[tex] \frac{a}{b} [/tex]

We multiply the numerator by multiples of 10 until we get an integer(the least integer) and then divide by the same value we multiplied with.

This implies that,

[tex]3.8 = \frac{3. 8\times 10}{10} = \frac{38}{10} [/tex]

We have [tex]a=38[/tex] and
[tex]b=10[/tex]
Therefore the correct answer is B.
