Explanation:

A whole can be divided into many parts and the number of parts will depend on the unit of measurement we use to divide it.

A whole can be divided into fifty equal parts, each of which is called a "fiftieth." So, one whole would be equal to 50 fiftieths.

1 whole = 50 fiftieths

Alternatively, we can say that one fiftieth is equal to 1/50th of a whole. This can be represented as a decimal or a fraction.

1 fiftieth = 1/50th of a whole = 0.02 (decimal)
