Question

What is 65% written as a fraction in simplest form

Answer 1

65% divided by 100% = 0.65

0.65 is 65/100

65/100 in simplest form is 13/20

  65 is divided by 5 to arrive at 13
100 is divided by 5 to arrive at 20

13/20 is the simplest form of 65% because both numbers, 13 and 20, no longer have a common factor left.
