Well, honey, one fifth and two tenths are both what we call equivalent fractions. They may look different, but they're really just different ways of slicing up the same pie. One fifth and two tenths are both fractions where the numerator is half of the denominator. So, they're like two peas in a pod, just dressed up differently.
Two fifths and one tenth are completely differentfractions - they are not equivalent values for the same fraction !
