To write a fraction as a percentage, you need to obtain the result of the division of 3 by 5 (this will be a decimal expression), and then multiply the result by 100. Then, we have:


(3)/(5)=0.6

Therefore:


P=0.6\cdot100\Rightarrow P=60

That is, 3/5 can be written as 60%. In other words, 3 is 60% of 5.
