This question tests your quantitative reasoning and mathematical problem-solving skills by requiring you to perform a series of fractional calculations sequentially. The goal is to determine 1/4 of 1/2 of 1/5 of 200.
Let's break it down step by step:
- First Step: Calculate 1/5 of 200.
- 1/5 of 200 = 200 / 5 = 40.
- Second Step: Calculate 1/2 of the result from the first step.
- 1/2 of 40 = 40 / 2 = 20.
- Third Step: Calculate 1/4 of the result from the second step.
- 1/4 of 20 = 20 / 4 = 5.
Therefore, the correct answer is 5.
This problem assesses your ability to apply basic arithmetic operations and to understand the order of operations involving fractions and percentages. It demonstrates your capacity to process multi-step calculations accurately.
