A percentage can be considered a fraction with a denominator of 100. 25% is 25/100, which can be simplified to 1/4. Similarly, 20% is 20/100, which simplifies to 1/5. Thus, 1/4 is comparable to 1/5 by comparing 25% to 20%.

What Relating percents ratios and decimals?

Percentages are a way of expressing a part-to-whole relationship, often represented as a ratio or fraction out of 100. Ratios, on the other hand, compare two or more quantities, often expressed in the form of a fraction or ratio. Decimals are a way of representing fractions or ratios using a base-10 numbering system. All three - percents, ratios, and decimals - can be used interchangeably when expressing mathematical relationships or values. For example, a ratio of 2:5 can be expressed as a percentage of 40%, and as a decimal of 0.4.
