1/5 as a percentage is 20.00%. This shows that one part out of five equal parts equals twenty percent of the whole.
When you see a discount of 20 % on a product, you are essentially getting one‑fifth off the original price. It’s also the same as saying that 20 out of every 100 items are selected.
Remember that 20.00% can be used in many simple calculations, like figuring out a portion of a group, a test score, or a share of a budget. It’s a handy number to keep in mind for everyday math.
