Question

Write the equivalent fraction, the reduced fraction, and the decimal equivalent for 45%. Jenny solved this problem and her work is shown below. What mistake did she make?

Answer 1

Answer:

Equivalent fraction: 45/100

Reduced fraction: 9/20

Decimal equivalent: 0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Equivalent fraction: percentage is just out of 100. 45% is 45 out of 100, aka 45/100.

Reduced fraction is just simplifying both sides by the GCF. In this case, 5.

Decimal equivalent of a percentage is just dividing the numerator by the denominator, or taking the numerator or the percentage and placing the decimal point forward two digits.
