Jake scored 20% of the team's points. What fraction of the
team's points were scored by Raul and Jake?

Answer 1

40%

Explanation:

First off, 1/5 is equal to 20%. If you're diving something into 5ths, you can do 100 / 5, which is 20. So you know that Raul scored at least 20% of the points. His friend Jake ALSO scores 20% of the teams points, making 20 + 20 = 40%. Therefore, 40% of the teams points were scored by Raul and Jake.
