Here we will explain and illustrate how to calculate 8/20 of a billion. In other words, you will learn how to answer the question, "What is eight twentieths of a billion?"
If you want to calculate 8/20 of a billion (eight twentieths of a billion), then you want to divide one billion (1,000,000,000) into 20 equal pieces and calculate the sum of 8 of those pieces.
Therefore, 8/20 of a billion is the quotient of one billion divided by 20, multiplied by 8. Here is the math and the answer:
(1,000,000,000 ÷ 20) × 8 = 400,000,000
8/20 of a billion = 400,000,000
Note that 8/20 of a billion will result in the same answer regardless of what you are referring to. For example, you might calculate 8/20 of a billion dollars or 8/20 of a billion people.
We also created the image below to give you a better understanding of what eight twentieths of a billion looks like.
To create the image above depicting 8/20 of a billion, we first colored the entire pie blue, and then colored 8/20 of the pie green.
