20% Also 1/5 or 0.20 aka 0.2 All of these equal the same answer. 20% is 1/5 because there are 5 20s in 100. How did I get 100? Add up 32+20+48=100. 0.2 or 0.20 is also a fraction but a decimal. 1/5 is 0.2 just converted into a decimal.

Answer: 20%

Explanation:

Given: The number of cards has hexagon on it = 20

The total number of cards =
32+20+48=100

Now, the probability that a randomly selected card has a hexagon drawn on it is given by :-


\text{P(Hexagon)}=\frac{\text{hexagon cards}}{\text{total cards}}\\\\=(20)/(100)\\\\=(1)/(5)=0.2

In percent , the probability that a randomly selected card has a hexagon drawn on it =
0.2*100=20\%
