Question

How do you write 2/5 in fraction?

Answer 1

`2/5` is already a fraction. It represents having 2 pieces out of a possible 5.

Explanation:

If, by chance, you are seeking the decimal representation of this fraction, you can convert easily by simply dividing 5 into 2:

`2-:5<=>5)bar2.00`

`"    "0.4`
`5)bar2.00`
`"    "20`
`"    "bar"    "`
`"      "0`

`2/5` in decimal form is `0.4`, or `40%`. (Example: scoring 2 out of 5 on a quiz is a score of 40%.)
