Question

Which fractions are equivalent to 40%?

Answer 1

All of them except 8/100 because it results 0.08 or 8%.

The rest:

2/5 = 0.4 = 40%

8/20 = 0.4 = 40%

4/10 = 0.4 = 40%

16/40 = 0.4 = 40%

Answer 2

40% = 40/100

8/100 doesn’t equal to 40 because it’s already over 100

2/5 x 20 = 40/100

8/20 x 5 = 40/100

4/10 x 10 = 40/100

16/40 divide by 2 = 1/5 x 20 = 20/100

So your answers are 2/5, 8/20 and 4/10
