40 percent of 5 calculation explanation

In order to calculate 40% of 5 let's write it as fractional equation.

We have 5 = 100% and X = 40%. So our fraction will look like:

5
/
X
=
100%
/
40%

Now we can solve our fraction by writing it as an equation:

X = (5 × 40) ÷ 100

=

X = 200 ÷ 100

=

X = 2

Therefore, 40% of 5 is 2

Another way to solve our problem is to find the value of 1% of the number and then multiply it by the number of percent (40). To find 1% of a number 5 you need to divide it by 100:

X = (5 ÷ 100) × 40

=

X = 0.05 × 40

=

X = 2

So we got the same result again: 2
