Answer:

1 3/5 = 8/5

.2=2/100

Explanation:

make an equality:

x/(8/5)=2/100

it kinds looks weird on here but write it out on paper

then cross multiply:

100x=(2)(8/5)

100x=16/5

now divide each side by 100:

x=4/125

same for the second one:

make an equality:

x/2=2/100

cross multiply:

100x=(2)(2)

100x=4

x=1/25
