A fraction is a short way to write a division problem.

Every fraction means (the top number) divided by (the bottom number).

When you actually do the division, you get the decimal.

3 divided by 5 = 0.60 .

To change any decimal to a percent, you move
the decimal point two places that way ==> .

0.60 = 60% .
