1/5   =   .20   =   20%

2/5   =   .40   =   40%

3/5   =   .60   =   60%

4/5   =   .80   =   80%

5/5   =  1.00  =  100%



While most people think the SAT is a test of advanced math, about one-fourth
  of the questions are arithmetic. Most students need to review this arithmetic.
SAT TIP:  Know these relationships
among fractions, decimals, and percents
to solve SAT problems more quickly.
