Question

If you ate 1/5 of the desert served at dinner, what percent of the food did you eat?

Answer 1

20% of food is eater. 1 divided by 5 is 0.2. You move the decimal 2 unites which would be 20.

Answer 2

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

so to become a percentage, you should multiply by 100% (which is basically 100/100 but don't multiply the bottom instead you write a percent sign)

So 1/5*100/100 without multiplying the bottom is:

100/5%

100 divided by 5 is 20. There you go! And you can use a calculator if that is easier for you. All you do is 1/5 which is .20 and your answer is 20%! Hope this helps!
