Question

B. one-fifth
C. start fraction 20 over 100 end fraction
D. The fraction is 2 over 5.

Answer 1

D. The fraction is 2 over 5.

To simplify 5/20, we can divide the numerator and denominator by 5:

5 ÷ 5 = 1

20 ÷ 5 = 4

So the simplified fraction is 1/4.

To check the answer choices:

A. 1/4 is already simplified and equivalent to 5/20. This is a possible answer.

B. One-fifth is equivalent to 4/20, not 5/20. This is not the correct answer.

C. 20/100 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 20:

20 ÷ 20 = 1

100 ÷ 20 = 5

So this fraction is equivalent to 1/5, not 5/20. This is not the correct answer.

D. As we found earlier, 5/20 simplifies to 1/4. 2/5 is not equivalent to 1/4. This is not the correct answer.

Therefore, the correct answer is A. The fraction is 1 over 4.
