percent simply means parts of 100. that means 60/100, which reduces to 6/10, which reduces further to 3/5. A proportion would be 3:5.

the answer is 60%. the fraction is 60/100 i think an equivalent proportion would be 3/5, 15/25, 12/20, or 6/10 (i think, not 2 sure about that 1) u probably did fine. i'm in algebra 1 so im pretty sure those r rite. i hope u got a good grade on your test!!

60 is 60% of 100. The fraction for 60% could be 60/100 or 6/10 or 3/5 or 21/35 - any fraction that equals 0.6.

60% is the same as 60 over 100 (60/100). Another way of saying that is 60 divided by 100. 60 divided by 100 is .60
... In mathematical reasoning, "of" means multiply...
...So, if you're asking what is 60% of 100 then multiply .60 times 100
(.60 X 100)...this is equal to 60

60/100 = 6/10 = 3/5

To figure: divide both the top and the bottom of the fraction by the same number (60/100 divided by 10 = 6/10 div. by 2 = 3/5)

60/100 is 60% and in a decimal form it's .60. Make sure that when anything is over 100, take the number above it and put the decimal 2 spaces before the last digit.

60/100

Hundredths are the same thing as percents.

So 60 hundredths = 60%

Likewise, since percent is the same thing as hundredth,
60% = 60 hundredths = 60/100
You can reduce that fraction to 3/5.

60 over 100 is 60%... if you ever have a fraction over 100 the numerator (top number) is the percent.

60/100 = 60%.
60 divide 100 = 0.6
0.6 times 100 (to get a percentage from a decimal) = 60
