wassup so 15% is what written in fractiion form?

OpenStudy (irrati0nal):

So, percents are typically a certain number out of 100. So 60% would be 60/100. Does that make sense?

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

@Tennis5518 you need to participate please

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

ok wait

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

15/100 You can reduce this by dividing both by 5: 3/20 That will be your fraction for 15% in it's simplest form.

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

EVADING BEING CAUGHT NEEDING HELP ON TEST? YOU JUST MADE A POST

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

keep it 15/100 though

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

@AlexandervonHumboldt2 please take that down

OpenStudy (irrati0nal):

Yo, dude, chill. She's taking a pretest. If it were a test, it would have point values next to the questions, like (10 points).

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

now if you are trying to get 15% of 30 is thirty going to be your whole number? or is 30 the 15% of the whole?

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

yes she has point values next to the question 3

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

it going to be a whole number.

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

so it will be on the bottom :)

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

yes that is whole

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

because the denominator(bottom) is always the (whole part)

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

yes that what im saying :)

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

so it will be 15/100 (thats 15%) = x/30 :)

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

it B

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

15----->x (what your trying to get) ----------- 100---->30 (your whole numbers)

OpenStudy (tennis5518):

so it B right

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

yep :)

OpenStudy (tennis5518):
