What percent of 1 3/5 is 0.2 and what percent of 2 is 0.2?

1 3/5 = 8/5

.2=2/100

make an equality:

x / (8/5) = 2/100

it kinds looks weird on here but write it out on paper

then cross multiply:

100x = (2) (8/5)

100x=16/5

now divide each side by 100:

x=4/125

same for the second one:

make an equality:

x/2=2/100

cross multiply:

100x = (2) (2)

100x=4

x=1/25

12.5% of 1 3/5 is 0.2

10% of 2 is 0.2
