1/3 = (1 x 5)/(3 x 5) = 5/15

1/5 = (1 x 3)/(5 x 3) = 3/15

So while 1/3 is 5/15, 1/5 is 3/15.

To convert one third to fifths, we need to recognize that there are 3 fifths in a whole. Therefore, to find out how many fifths are in one third, we need to multiply 1/3 by the reciprocal of 1/5, which is 5/1. This gives us 1/3 * 5/1 = 5/3. So, one third is equal to 5 fifths.

Oh, that's a happy little question! If we have 1 third, we can divide it into 5 equal parts to find out how many fifths there are. So, 1 third is the same as 3 fifths. Isn't that just delightful? Just remember, there are many ways to look at numbers, and each one is a lovely little discovery waiting to be made.
