No. 1/5 is only 30% of 2/3 .

______________

Additional information:

To compare these fractions we should convert each into a fraction with the same denominator (number at the bottom).

If we convert both to fifteenths then we will see the difference.

To convert 1/5 to fifteenths we do: 15 divided by 5 times 1 = 3.

So 1/5 is equal to 3/15.

2/3 converted to fifteenths is: 15 divided by 3 times 2 = 10.

So 2/3 is equal to 10/15.

You can therefore see that they are not the same!
