Hey there!


Option A.

20% = 0.20 = 1/2

[1/2 = 1 ÷ 2 = 0.50 = 50%]

Thus, this statement is: FALSE

Option B.
40% = 0.40 = 2/5

[2/5 = 2 ÷ 5 = 0.40 = 40%]
Thus, this statement is: TRUE

Option C.
60% = 0.60 = 2/5

[2/5 = 2 ÷ 5 = 0.40 = 40%]
Thus, this statement is: FALSE

Therefore, your answer is:

Option B. 40% = 0.40 = 2/5


Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
