Convert to fractions: 0.02 / 0.4 = ( 2/100 ) / ( 4 / 10 )

Swap the numerator and denominator on the second term and multiply:

( 2/100 ) / ( 4 / 10 ) = (2/100) x (10/4)

Simplify:

(2/100) x (10/4) = (1/50) x (5/2)

Multiply:

(1/50) x (5/2) = 5/100

Simplify (again):

5/100 = 1/20

If you want a decimal:

1/20 = .05

So your answer is 1/20 or 0.05
