Answer 1/5 as a decimal can be expressed in 0.2
Let’s convert 1/5 into one decimal.
Explanation:
Given fraction 1/5
Multiply the numerator and denominator by a number so that the denominator can be expressed as a power of 10.
(1×2)/(5×2) = 2/10
Thus, 2/10=0.2 (The decimal point is moved one position to the left since the denominator is 10)
Another method of expressing 1/5 in decimal form is by dividing 1 by 5. So, 1 / 5 = 0.2
