Sagot :

Answer: 1/5 * 1/4 = a

Step-by-step explanation: Ok, so 5/5 = 1 whole. So that is the reason why the square is divided into 20 small squares. Dividing fractions is the same as multiplying by its recriplical. Ex. 2 divided by 1/4. First we would do 2/1 divided by 1/4, since a whole can be put on top of 1. So in your case that would be 4/1. Then we do 2/1 * 4/1. As you can see 1/4 is flipped because dividing is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal. So in your case that would be 1/5 * 1/4 = a
