Use the diagram of 2/5 shown at right to make sense of the following questions.

a.) describe what 2/5 would look like if it were built on a 100% block. what are the largest pieces you could use? how many of these pieces would it take to build the portion? what are the smallest pieces you could use? how many of these pieces would it take to build the portion?

b.)write 2/5 as a fraction with a denominator of 10 and then with a denominator of 100. in other words, 2/5 = ? /10 and 2/5 = ? /100. what giant one would you use to show that 2/5 is equivalent to a portion of 100?

c.)how could 2/5 be written as a decimal? how is the decimal representation related to the 100% block diagram that you described in part (a)?

what is another name for the decimal representation of 2/5? explain how the name relates to the 100% block.
