Answer:

40%

Explanation:

Percentages add up to 100% with fractions. So if you have 2/5 thats 40%.
Or if you need to make it easier multiply by 2 and you get 4/10 which is also 40% so its the same.

Answer:

40%

Explanation:

To express a fraction as a percentage, we can multiply the fraction by 100. In the case of two fifths (2/5):


\begin{aligned} \textsf{Percentage} & = (2)/(5) * 100 \% \\\\ & = (2 * 100)/(5)\% \\\\ & = (200)/(5) \% \\\\ &= 40\% \end{aligned}

Therefore,
\sf (2)/(5) written as a percentage is
\sf 40\%.
