How would I show 2/5 as a division problem? Please explain using complete sentences.

If you mean to ask how you divide 2 by 5, then consider instead dividing 20 by 5, then divide that result by 10 (which is as simple as moving a decimal point to the left)

We have 20/5 = 4, then 4/10 = 0.4.

Why does this work? All we're doing is multiplying by 1 in the form of 10/10, then moving around factors within the product:

2/5 = 2/5 * 10/10 = (2*10)/5 * 1/10 = 20/5 * 1/10 = 4/10 = 0.4

VikaD [51]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 4 + 1 + 9 + 6 = 20 cookies.  So the probabilities of each type for a random cookie are:

P(oatmeal raisin) = 4/20 = 1/5

P(sugar) = 1/20

P(chocolate chip) = 9/20

P(peanut butter) = 6/20 = 3/10
