If you want to get the answer in decimals, you need to convert 1/5 to decimal.

1/5 = 0.20

4.25 x 0.20 = 0.8500

If you want the answer in fraction, you have to convert 4.25 in fraction which is 4 1/4

thus 4 1/4 x 1/5

Make 4 1/4 into improper fraction, ( 4 x 4 + 1 )

17/4 x 1/5

Just multiply the numerator of the first number with the numerator of the second AND denominator of the first number with the denominator of the second number.

Thus 17 x 1 / 4 * 5 = 17/ 20

the first step is to change the 1/5 into a demicial
so 1/5 = .20
so 4.25 x .20 = 8500 you have to move the decimal point 4 places to the right ad the answer is .85

I would either convert both quantities to fractions or both to decimals first.

4 1/4 x 1/5 = 17/4 x 1/5 = 17/20

or --

4.25 x .20 = 0.85

It's just 4.25 divided by 5, so

4.25 / 5 = .85

2007-03-24 19:00:22 · answer #5 · answered by Sean Walker 3 · 0 0

1/5 = .2 (.2 X 5 = 1)

so just multiply 4.25 X .2

the answer is .85
because you have four 1s. .2 of them is .2 each times 4 equaling .8
Then, 1/5th of .25 is .05

so .8 + .05 is .85

or directly multiply the two numbers:
4.25
X .2
______

or multiply the fractions:
17/4 X 1/5
