ANSWER

1/5

Step-by-step explanation

We want to find the value of 0.2 written as a fraction.

To do this, we have that since 2 is directly after the decimal, its place value is tenths, and so we can write that:


\begin{gathered} (2)/(10) \\ \text{write this in lowest terms:} \\ (1)/(5) \end{gathered}

That is the answer.
