no, 100 divided by the denominator (5) is 20. now multiply 20 by the numerator (2) which equals 40. now which is more..35% or 40%? Sorry if it is too late for this answer.

if you convert 2/5 into a decimal which is 0.4 and multiply it by 100
you'll get 40 which means 2/5 is 40%
so 35% is less than 2/5
