Answer:
24 is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, we first do two thirds of 180, and then we do one fifth of the solution you got for "two thirds of 180"
[tex]\mathrm{Two\:thirds\:of\:180 = (\frac{2}{3}) 180\:\:or\:\:\frac{2}{3}\times180}[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm{Turn\:\frac{2}{3}\:into\:a\:decimal,\:by\:dividing\:2\:by\:3}[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm{0.6666666666666667\times180}[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm{Multiply\:0.6666666666666667\:and\:180}[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm{120}[/tex]
Now we do one fifth of 120
[tex]\mathrm{One\:fifth\:of\:120 = (\frac{1}{5})120\:or\:\frac{1}{5}\times120}[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm{Turn\:\frac{1}{5}\:into\:a\:decimal,\:by\:dividing\:1\:by\:5}[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm{0.2\times120}[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm{Multiply\:0.2\:and\:120}[/tex]
[tex]24[/tex]
So the answer to "What is one fifth of two thirds of 180", would be 24
