Multiply 20% by 190 (remember that you cannot multiply 190 by 20, 20% does not equal 20, it equals a decimal)

$20%=0.2 rarr$ To convert a percentage to a decimal, divide the number by 100

$20/100=0.2$

$0.2*190=38$

Or, multiply 190 by the fraction $1/5$ , which is equal to 20% ( $20/100$ ) and 0.2

$20/100=2/10=1/5$

$190*1/5$

$190/5$

$38$
