What is 1/5 in a percentage

20%

Step-by-step explanation: To write a fraction as a percent,

first remember that a percent is a ratio of a number to 100.

So to write 1/5 as a percent, we need to find a fraction

equivalent to 1/5 that has a 100 in the denominator.

We can do this by setting up a proportion.

So we have .

Now, we can use cross-products to find the missing value.

So we have (1)(100) = (5)(n).

So we have the equation 100 = 5n.

Next, dividing both sides of the equation by 5, we have 20 = n.

So 1/5 is equal to 20/100 or 20%

Since a percent is a ratio that compares a

number to 100, we can 20/100 as 20%.

the 8 in 8,420 is in the thousands place so it's value is 8 thousand.

the 8 in 6,870 is in the hundreds place so it's value is 8 hundred.

divide 8000 by 800 to find the answer:

8000 / 800 = 10

the 8 in 8,420 is 10 times greater than the 8 in 6,870
