When you divide 5 by 25, the result is 0.2. This means that 5 is one-fifth of 25.
Here’s a simple explanation:
- Division is the process of determining how many times one number is contained within another.
- In this case, 25 is the dividend (the number being divided), and 5 is the divisor (the number by which we are dividing).
- When you divide 5 by 25, you are essentially asking how many times 25 fits into 5. Since 25 is larger than 5, it fits 0.2 times.
Mathematically, this can be represented as:
5 รท 25 = 0.2
So, 5 divided by 25 equals 0.2.
