Answer 2

→ The way I like to do these kind of math problems is below - I find it easier

A fraction usually means to divide, so I will start by dividing the numerator by the denominator of 7/10.

7/10 = 0.7, or, 70%

1/5 = 0.2, or, 20%

Now, we can go and divide each of our answers together.

0.7 ÷ 0.2 = 3.5 :D

Your final answer is 3.5
