Whether the Continental Contact fits your bike is decided by one number: the bead seat diameter, the second half of an ETRTO size. This tire is made for 406 mm rims (20-inch). If your rim matches, the only remaining question is width, and that is a matter of frame and fork clearance rather than of fit.

How the Continental Contact compares on weight
Each row weighs the lightest listed Continental Contact in that size against the lightest listing of every other model available in the same size. Models are compared once regardless of how many colours they come in, and tires with no published weight are left out of the ranking entirely.
| Size | This tire | Median for the size | Rank |
|---|---|---|---|
| 37-406 | 420 g | 385 g | 3rd lightest of 4 |
| 47-406 | 505 g | 545 g | 5th lightest of 11 |
