Well 0.65 as a percentage is 65% which is 65/100. So in the simplest for it would be the highest number going into both which would be 5 and then divide both numbers by 5.
65/5=13
100/5=20
So the answer for this question would be 13/20

Answer: 13/20

Step-by-step explanation: To write 0.65 as a fraction, think of 0.65 sixty-five hundredths which can be written as the fraction 65/100.Notice however that 65/100 is not in lowest terms so we need to divide the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor of 65 and 100 which is 5 and we will get the equivalent fraction 13/20.

Therefore, 0.65 can be written as the fraction 13/20.
