17/100 is correct. 17 is a prime number so it can't be reduced any further.

The answer is 17/100 because neither number can be divided any lower by another number. For example if you decimal was 0.24 it would start as 24/100. Both numbers can be divided by 4 so you would get 6/25 as the lowest fraction. 17/100 is the lowest you get for 0.17.

that is the lowest answer you can get... if you are required to do more working out to complete the marks you can get you should prove that its the lowest term by dividing the top and bottom by 1 and 17 as they are the only factors of 17....

I think: 17%, or 17/100

well, you got the first part right, and for the second part, all you have to do is see if you can reduce the numbers(ex. 2/4 could be 1/2) now that you can see thati can't be reduced, it means that the answer already is in lower terms, but it won't always be so.

yes, 17/100 is already in lowest terms because it cannot be reduced.

Yes, you are correct. 17 is not divisible by anything other than itself and 1, so that's it.
