Answer: c) 40

Step-by-step explanation:

The fraction is 40/100, which means that 2/5 as a percentage is 40%.

2/5 = 0.4

Once we have the answer to that division, we can multiply the answer by 100 to make it a percentage:

0.4 x 100 = 40%

Now we can see that our fraction is 40/100, which means that 2/5 as a percentage is 40%.

A simpler way by first converting the fraction 2/5 to a decimal. For that, we simply divide the numerator by the denominator:

2/5 = 0.4

We can multiply the answer by 100 to make it a percentage:

0.4 x 100 = 40%

Hope it helps!
