5 and one half - 2 and two fifths = 3
One half is bigger than two fifths because two fifths just before 2.5 fifths which is half.
one and a half multiplied by two fifths = 0.6
Two fifths divided by 2 is just cutting two fifths in half. That equals one fifth.2/5 divided by 2 = 1/5
To determine which fraction is nearer to one half, we can compare the differences. Two thirds (2/3) is approximately 0.67, while two fifths (2/5) is 0.4. The difference between one half (0.5) and two thirds is 0.17, while the difference between one half and two fifths is 0.1. Therefore, two fifths is nearer to one half than two thirds.
one tenths
To determine how many one halves are in two fifths, we can divide two fifths by one half. This is done by multiplying two fifths by the reciprocal of one half: ( \frac{2}{5} \div \frac{1}{2} = \frac{2}{5} \times \frac{2}{1} = \frac{4}{5} ). Therefore, there are ( \frac{4}{5} ) one halves in two fifths.
It is one half.
2/5 of 1/2 is 1/5.
2/5 - 1/2 = -1/10
One and half divided by three and two fifths = (3/2)/(17/5) = (3 x 5)/ (2 x 17) = 15/34
Well, isn't that a happy little question! Half of two fifths is one fifth. Just imagine splitting those two little fifths right down the middle, and you'll have a lovely one fifth waiting for you. Remember, there are no mistakes, just happy accidents!
Yes, you multiply the numerator by the numerator, and the denominator by the denominator, and then reduce the fraction. For instance:One half of two fifths is1/2 x 2/5 = 2/10 which, when reduced, equals 1/5. Logically, if you have half of two fifths, you have one fifth. If you had half of four fifths, you would have two fifths, and so on.
