Answer:

30%

Explanation:

Make a fraction

6/20

There a few different ways to find a percentage, but in this case, I will change the fraction to be out of 100

20 × what = 100?

20 × 5 = 100

Multiply the denoninator by 5

6 / 20 × 5

What we do to the denominator, we must also do to the numerator

6 × 5 / 20 × 5

30/100

Percentages are out of 100, meaning if the fraction has the denominator "100," the numerator is the answer

30%
