Answer: 66.67

Step-by-step explanation: To write a fraction as a percent, first remember that a percent is a ratio of a number to 100. If we want to write 6/9 as a percent, we need to find a fraction equivalent to 6/9 that has a 100 in the denominator. We can do this by setting up a proportion.


(6)/(9) =
(n)/(100)

Now, we can use cross products to find the missing value.

9n = 600

÷9 ÷9

n = 66.67

Therefore, 6/9 can be written as 66.67%.

\huge\boxed{66.\overline{6}\%}

First, simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator each by
3.
(6)/(9) / (3)/(3) = (2)/(3)


(2)/(3) is a common fraction with an equivalent percentage of
\boxed{66.\overline{6}\%}.

The
.\overline{6} represents an infinitely repeating
6, as in
.6666666666...
