    Since there are 8 cookies out of 20 cookies, the probability of randomly choosing a chocolate chip cookie would be 8 out of 10, or 8/10 if you prefer fractions.

    However, the fraction 8/10 can still be simplified. Divide the numerator and denominator by 2 to get 4/5.

    4/5 - - > 4 divided by 5 = 0.8

    So the answer is 4/5 or 0.8.
