ANSWER

The fraction form of 20% in simplest form is

(1)/(5)


EXPLANATION


20\%
means 20 out of 100.


In fraction form, we have;


20\% = (20)/(100)

We need to write this in the simplest form so we expand the denominator to obtain,



20\% = (20)/(20 * 5)


We now cancel out common factors to obtain,


20\% = (1)/(1 * 5)



This finally simplifies to

20\% = (1)/(5)
