Question

On average, 4 20 of the money you spend on a product pays for the packaging. What is this fraction when you cancel it down?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{1}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given,

The fraction of money spent on a product = $\frac{4}{20}$.

Since, we have that,

20 = 4 × 5

Simplifying this equation to get the required fraction i.e. $\frac{4}{20}$, we get,

$\frac{4}{20}=\frac{1}{5}$

Thus, the fraction after canceling down gives the answer $\frac{1}{5}$.
