Here we will explain and illustrate how to calculate 2/40 of a million. In other words, you will learn how to answer the question, "What is two fortieths of a million?"
If you want to calculate 2/40 of a million (two fortieths of a million), then you want to divide one million (1,000,000) into 40 equal pieces and calculate the sum of 2 of those pieces.
Therefore, 2/40 of a million is the quotient of one million divided by 40, multiplied by 2. Here is the math and the answer:
(1,000,000 ÷ 40) × 2 = 50,000
2/40 of a million = 50,000
Note that 2/40 of a million will result in the same answer regardless of what you are referring to. For example, you might calculate 2/40 of a million dollars or 2/40 of a million people.
