To determine the fraction of two pounds that is equivalent to 30p, we first need to convert the pence amount to pounds. Since there are 100 pence in a pound, 30p is equal to 30/100 = 0.3 pounds. To find the fraction, we divide 0.3 by 2, which equals 0.3/2 = 3/20. Therefore, 30p is equivalent to 3/20 of two pounds.
