Answer:
60%
Step-by-step-solution:
5 can be evenly divided into 100 (20 times)
Whatever you do the denominator, you have to do to the numerator too
Since you multiple 5 by 20 to get to 100, you have to multiple 3 by 20 as well which gets you 60, so therefore the answer is 60%

Express 3/5 as a percentage

SOLUTION

First multiply the deniminator by a number that will makes it 100 and then multiply that number by the numerator

That is;

3 x 20 / 5 x 20

= 60/100

= 60%
