Question

Write 95% as decimal AND simplified fractions. ANS. As decimal _________. As simplified fractions . _______

Answer 1

The number 95% is the same as:

`(95)/(100)`

If we devide the numerator directly by the denominator we will obtain the decimal, which is:

`(95)/(100)=0.95`

We can also simplify the fraction dividing the numerator and denominator by 5.

`(95)/(100)=(19)/(20)`

As decimal it is 0.95. As simplified fraction it is 19/20.
