what is the number that is one half of one quarter of one tenth of 400?

is it 5 or 2

First divide 400 by 10
400/10 = 40

then divide the result by 4
40/4 = 10

and lastly divide the result by 2
10/2 = 5

So 5 is your answer

5

Rewrite this sort of problems in the following pattren – which will remove the confusion : 1/2[1/4{1/10(400)}]
Now remove the brackets from inside to outside:
1/2[1/4{40}] = 1/2[10] = 5

Source(s): Still have any doubt of it ? ! ?

It is 5.
(one tenth of 400
=1/10(400)
=40
one quarter of one tenth of 400
=1/4(40)
=10
one half of one quarter of one tenth of 400
1/2(10)
=5)

One Quarter Of 200

Answer 6

1/2 * (1/4 * (1/10 * 400) )

= (1/2 * 1/4 * 1/10) * 400

= 1/80 * 400

= 5

Answer 7

400 ÷ 1/2 = 400/2 = 200

200 ÷ 1/4 = 200/4 = 50

50 ÷ 1/10 = 50/10 = 5

The answer is 5

– – – – – – – – -s-

1/10*400=40
1/4*40=10
1/2*10=5
5

1/2(1/4(1/10*400)
1/2(1/4*40)
1/2*10
5

So 5 it is.

Hope this helps.
