Explanation:

65 = 100%

0.65 = 1%

26 = x%

Answer:

40%

Explanation:

you would first simply the fraction down

13 goes into both numbers so the fraction can be simplified to

2/5 which is think is simply enough to know that 2/5 is 40% but if not the explanation would be

100÷5 =20

20 x by the 2 from the fraction

= 40%
