Explanation:

Step1: Convert decimals to percents

To convert a decimal to a percent, multiply by 100.

• For 1.9: $1.9\times100 = 190\%$, so 1.9 matches d.
• For 0.9: $0.9\times100=90\%$, so 0.9 matches e.
• For 0.09: $0.09\times 100 = 9\%$, so 0.09 matches f.
• For 0.99: $0.99\times100 = 99\%$, so 0.99 matches b.
• For 1.09: $1.09\times100=109\%$, so 1.09 matches a.
• For 0.009: $0.009\times100 = 0.9\%$, so 0.009 matches c.

Step2: Analyze question 20

We need to find the non - equivalent value for 95%.

• Option a: 9.5 is not equivalent to 95% because $95\%=\frac{95}{100}=0.95

eq9.5$.

• Option b: $0.95=\frac{95}{100}=95\%$.
• Option c: $\frac{19}{20}=\frac{19\times5}{20\times5}=\frac{95}{100}=95\%$.
• Option d: $\frac{95}{100}=95\%$.

Answer:

a
