To find the how much the first bar represents from the second bar, we need to calculate the ratio between them.
[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
To convert this ratio to a percentage, we just need to convert the denominator to 100, and the numerator will be the percentual value. We can convert by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 20.
[tex]\frac{2}{5}\times\frac{20}{20}=\frac{2\times20}{5\times20}=\frac{40}{100}=40\%[/tex]
The first bar is 40% as long as the second bar.
