The problem in the image asks for the missing number that makes the fractions \( \frac{4}{5} \) and \( \frac{\square}{10} \) equal.

To solve this, we recognize that two fractions are equivalent if their cross-products are equal. So, we set up the equation:

\[
4 \times 10 = 5 \times \text{missing number}
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
40 = 5 \times \text{missing number}
\]

Now, divide both sides by 5:

\[
\text{missing number} = \frac{40}{5} = 8
\]

So, the missing number is **8**.
