By definition, a fraction has the following form:


(a)/(b)

Where "a" is the numerator of the fraction and "b" is the denominator.

In this case, you have the following fraction given in the exercise:


(5)/(6)

You can identify that the numerator of the fraction is 5 and its denominator is 6.

In order to write the fraction given in percent form, you can follow the steps shown below:

1. Divide the numerator 5 by the denominator 6.

2. Multiply the result by 100.

3. Write the percent sign % next to the result.

Then, you get:


(5)/(6)=0.8333\cdot100=83.33

The answer is: 83.33%
