\large{\dfrac{4.16\times 10^{-5}}{8.0\times 10^{-4}}} =\ ?

To solve the expression:

\[
\frac{4.16 \times 10^{-5}}{8.0 \times 10^{-4}}
\]

Follow these steps:

1. Rewrite the expression:

\[
\frac{4.16 \times 10^{-5}}{8.0 \times 10^{-4}} = \frac{4.16}{8.0} \times \frac{10^{-5}}{10^{-4}}
\]

2. Simplify the fraction \(\frac{4.16}{8.0}\):

\[
\frac{4.16}{8.0} = 0.52
\]

3. Simplify the powers of 10:

\[
\frac{10^{-5}}{10^{-4}} = 10^{-5 + 4} = 10^{-1}
\]

4. Combine the results:

\[
0.52 \times 10^{-1} = 0.052
\]

Thus, the value of the expression is:

\[
\boxed{0.052}
\]
