Answer: 2 2/5 is 4/5 of 3
Step-by-step explanation:
We can view that as what do we multiply 3 by to get 2 2/5 and call that value x
3x = 2 2/5
x = (2 2/5)/3
Let's turn 2 2/5 into an improper fraction... 2 2/5 = 12/5
So we have
x = (12/5)/3 = (12/5)(1/3) = 4/5
Thus 2 2/5 is 4/5 of 3
Verify: 3(4/5) = 12/5 = 2 2/5
