Answer: fraction = 1/20 or 0.05
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first convert metre to centimeter
1 metre = 100 centimeters
Given that Each fourth meter is marked off and divided into 5 smaller equal lengths. This means:
1/4 × 100 = 25
Then divide 25 into 5 places
25/5 = 5cm
If Mr. Hopkins bends the wire at - meter, what fraction of the smaller marks is that?
The fraction = 5/100 = 1/ 20 or 0.05
