Question

10 points if someone gets right

Given the percentage of 2/5 %.

What is its value as a decimal? What is its value as a fraction?

Answer 1

Explanation:

remember,

100% = 1

1% = 100%/100 = 1/100 = 0.01

as decimal

2/5 % = 1% × 2/5 = 0.01 × 0.4 = 0.004

as fraction

1% × 2/5 = 1/100 × 2/5 = 2/500 = 1/250
