Answer:
17, 56, 41,
Step-by-step explanation:
"third side is 24 more than shortest side"
Let a be the shortest side.
c = a+24
"perimeter is 114"
a+b+c = 114
a+b+(a+24) = 114
2a + b = 90
"one side is 5 more than 3 times the shortest side"
That side must be b; c is an extraneous solution.
b = 3a+5
2a+(3a+5) = 90
a = 17
b = 56
c = 41
(a,b,c) = (17,56,41)
⇒ Solutions
5% as a decimal and fraction
1) To make 5% to decimal you have to divide 5% by 100. Percent means something out of 100.
⇒ 5% ÷ 100 = n
n = 0.05
5% as a decimal = 0.05

5% as a fraction
1) Percent is always out of 100 so 5% would be out of 100
⇒ 5% = 5/100
The fraction of 5% is 5/100
5/100 can be reduced
To reduce a fraction you have to divide by the greatest common factor
The greatest common factor of 5 and 100 is 5.
5 ÷ 5 = 1
100 ÷ 5 = 20
5/100 in simplest form would be 1/20
