Respuesta :

Answer:

C. 5 goes into 100 twenty times, and 1 times 20 is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, we know that when we multiply both numerator and denominator of a fraction by a same number then we obtain an equivalent fraction,

Here, the given fraction,

[tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

By the above statement,

[tex]\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1\times 20}{5\times 20}=\frac{20}{100}[/tex]

Now,

[tex]a\%=\frac{a}{100}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \frac{20}{100}=20\%[/tex]

Hence,

[tex]\frac{1}{5}=20\%[/tex]
