Answer :

yes! if you check by doing cross multiplication, you will get the same answer! OR if you simplify 20/100 and reduce it, you will get 1/5

The correct answer is: Yes, 20/100 equivalent to 1/5


Explanation:


The given fraction is:

[tex] \frac{20}{100} [/tex]


Now, cancel one zero of 20 (in numerator) with one zero of 100 (in denominator), you would get:

[tex] \frac{2}{10} [/tex]


Now 2 * 5 = 10, therefore after cancellation, the fraction will become:

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


Hence, we can say thaat 20/100 is equivalent to 1/5.
