We have to express the fraction as a percentage.
We can think of the percentage as a fraction with denominator 100.
This means that 25% is equivalent to 25/100.
This is because 100% is the unit, then 100/100 = 1.
We can use this to convert a fraction to a percentage by transforming the denominator into 100.
In this case, the fraction is 2/5.
The denominator is 5, so to convert it to 100 we have to multiply it by 100/5 = 20.
Then, we apply this both to the numerator and denominator:
[tex]\frac{2}{5}*\frac{20}{20}=\frac{2*20}{5*20}=\frac{40}{100}=40\%[/tex]
Answer: 2/5 = 40%
