two and one half times one fifth = 1/22 1/2 = 5/22 1/2 * 1/5 = 5/2 * 1/5 = 1/2
1/5 x 1/2 is 1/10
It means: 1/2 times 1/5 times 20 = 2
4 and 1/2 x 1/5 = 9/10
1/2 times 1/5 = 1/10 and 1/10 of 20 = 2
It is: 1/2 times 1/5 = 1/10
two and one half times one fifth = 1/22 1/2 = 5/22 1/2 * 1/5 = 5/2 * 1/5 = 1/2
1/2 x 1/5 is 1/10
1/5 x 1/2 is 1/10
It means: 1/2 times 1/5 times 20 = 2
4 and 1/2 x 1/5 = 9/10
1/2 times 1/5 = 1/10 and 1/10 of 20 = 2
One half of one fifth is one tenth. You just 'double' the denominator if you want to get half of the fraction.
As we learned in the fourth grade, the word 'of' means 'times' or multiplication. This is a very powerful tool. 1 tenth of 1 fifth of 1 half of 12,000 = (1/10)(1/5)(1/2)(12,000) = 12,000/100 = 120
one half of a fifth= one tenth 5*2=10 1*1=1 1/10+ one tenth
No, half of 1/4 would be 1/8th.
1 1/5
