Answer:

20%

Explanation:

4 is the numerator and 20 it the denominator, you have to multiply it by something to get to 100 (in this case that would be 20x5).

Next, you multiply the numerator by 5 and you will get 20, which will be 20/100 or 20%

Answer:

Hi! In order to convert the fraction 4/20 into a percentage, we must first divide 4 by 20 -

4/20 = 0.2

Then, we must convert the decimal 0.2 into a percentage by multiplying it by 100 (this will give us the percentage out of 100) -

0.2 x 100 = 20

4/20 as a percentage is 20%.

I hope this helped you! Have a great day. - Mani :)
