1. **Stating the problem:**
We have two rectangular bar models representing fractions or division expressions.
- The first bar is divided into 10 parts, 8 shaded, representing 1.8, and further divided vertically into 4 equal sections.
- The second bar is also divided into 10 parts, 8 shaded, representing 1.8, but divided vertically into 5 equal sections.
We want to find which division expression matches the model.
2. **Understanding the model:**
- The horizontal division into 10 parts with 8 shaded means the total length is 1.8 (since 8 parts out of 10 is 0.8, but here it represents 1.8).
- The vertical division into 4 or 5 equal parts means the bar is split into those many sections.
3. **Relating to division expressions:**
- Dividing 1.8 by 4 means splitting the bar into 4 equal parts vertically.
- Dividing 1.8 by 5 means splitting the bar into 5 equal parts vertically.
4. **Checking the options:**
- $1.8 \div 3$ would mean 3 vertical sections, but the model shows 4 and 5.
- $2 \div 4$ and $2 \div 5$ use 2 instead of 1.8, so they don't match the shaded length.
- $1.8 \div 4$ matches the first bar (1.8 length divided into 4 parts).
5. **Conclusion:**
The expression represented by the first bar model is:
$$1.8 \div 4$$
The second bar model corresponds to:
$$1.8 \div 5$$
Since the question asks for which expression can be represented by the model (singular), the best match is:
$$1.8 \div 4$$
