Question

Is 40% bigger than 2/5

Answer 1

To find the percentage of 2/5 you'll divide them and then multiply the answer by 100.

2/5 = 0.4 = 40%

So 40% and 2/5 are equal.

Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

40% can be rewritten as 0.4 
2/5 can be rewritten as 0.4. 

As you can see, they are equal, so NO, 40% is not bigger than 2/5.
