40p
1kg ~= 2.2lb (slightly over) 45p per 1/2 kg = 90 per kg 40p per lb ~= 88p per kg ⇒ 40p per pound is cheaper.
It is: 1/8 of 40p = 5p

Convert to the same units, then the fraction can be simplified: £1 = 100p → 40p/£1 = 40p/100p = 40/100 = 2/5
£1.00 = 100p ⇒ 40p as a fraction of £1.00 is 40p/100p = 2/5= 12
40p per kilo is cheaper, here is why, spend 40p on a kilo, 1 kilo = 2.2 pounds, so 40p would get you 2.2 pounds, that works out at just under 20p per pound.
Well, darling, if 40p is supposed to be a fraction of 2.00, then we need to figure out how many 40p's fit into 2.00. Since there are 100 pennies in a pound, 40p is 0.40 pounds. To find the fraction, we divide 0.40 by 2.00 and get 0.20. So, the fraction of 2.00 that 40p represents is 0.20 or 1/5. Hope that clears things up for ya!

Oh, dude, 5p is like 5 pence, right? So, like, 100 pence make a pound. Therefore, 5p is like 5/100 of a pound, which simplifies to 1/20. So, like, 5p is 1/20 of a pound.
Write as 40/100 then simplify by dividing numerator and denominator by 20 to give 2/5 Therefore 40p is 2/5 of £1 (100p).

Is it 27
Well, isn't that a happy little question! If half a kilogram costs 40p, that means each gram costs 0.08p (40p divided by 500g). So, for 100 grams, it would be 8p (0.08p multiplied by 100g). Just remember, mistakes are just happy accidents in the world of math!
There are 8 five pence coins in 40 pence.
