Answer:

22/55 = 40% = 0.4

Explanation:

22/55

Reduce the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by 11.

22/55 = 2/5

Now use a calculator, or long division, to divide 2 by 5.

22/55 = 2/5 = 0.4

To change a decimal to a percent, multiply the decimal by 100%.

0.4 × 100% = 40%

Answer: 22/55 = 40% = 0.4
