SOLUTION

Step 1 : One of the easiest ways to determine which one of the quantities is greater is by expressing the quantities as a decimal.


\begin{gathered} (3)/(5)\text{ = 0.6} \\ \\ 59\text{ \% = 0.59} \end{gathered}

Step 2: From the two quantities expressed as decimals, we can see that :


(3)/(5)\text{ is greater.}

CONCLUSION :


(3)/(5)\text{ is greater.}
