To find out how many tenths a fifth is less than 7 tenths, we first need to calculate what a fifth of 7 tenths is. A fifth of 7 tenths is 7 tenths multiplied by 1/5, which equals 7 tenths multiplied by 0.2, resulting in 1.4 tenths. To determine how many tenths this is less than 7 tenths, we subtract 1.4 tenths from 7 tenths, giving us 5.6 tenths. Therefore, a fifth is 5.6 tenths less than 7 tenths.

A fifth is 2 tenths, which is 5 tenths (or one half) less than 7 tenths: 7/10-1/5=7/10-2/10=5/10=1/2
