Oh, dude, let me break it down for you. So, one half of a fifth of 20 is basically 20 divided by 5, which is 4, and then you take half of that, which is 2. So, the answer is 2. Easy peasy, right?
It means: 1/2 times 1/5 times 20 = 2
7/10
It is: 1/10 of a 1/2 is 1/20
20/5=4 4 is one fifth of 20
Notice that -- one fifth of 20 pounds of topsoil is 4 pounds of topsoil, -- one fifth of 20 cows is 4 cows, -- one fifth of 20 miles of rope is 4 miles of rope, -- one fifth of 20 acres of land is 4 acres of land, -- one fifth of 20 bushels of tomatoes is 4 bushels of tomatoes, and -- one fifth of 20 dozen cookies is 4 dozen cookies. Once you notice this, and begin to pick up the pattern, you might be tempted to guess that one fifth of 20 percent is 4 percent. And you'd be correct.
It means: 1/2 times 1/5 times 20 = 2
No. Half of one tenth is 1/20. To get 1/5 take two 'one tenth's ie twice of one tenth is one fifth.
You recognise that 20% is one-fifth so you multiply 75 by 5...
7/10
Working backwards from 200 fifth of 200 = 40 half of 40 = 20 fourth of 20 = 5 The answer is 5
It is: 1/10 of a 1/2 is 1/20
20/5=4 4 is one fifth of 20
60 x 0.2 = 12 or, since we know 20% is equal to 1/5 12 is one fifth of 60
Notice that -- one fifth of 20 pounds of topsoil is 4 pounds of topsoil, -- one fifth of 20 cows is 4 cows, -- one fifth of 20 miles of rope is 4 miles of rope, -- one fifth of 20 acres of land is 4 acres of land, -- one fifth of 20 bushels of tomatoes is 4 bushels of tomatoes, and -- one fifth of 20 dozen cookies is 4 dozen cookies. Once you notice this, and begin to pick up the pattern, you might be tempted to guess that one fifth of 20 percent is 4 percent. And you'd be correct.
One fifth as a decimal is 0.20 One fifth as a percentage is 20%
multiply by 20. One fifth = 20 hundredths
one-fifth = .20
