Answer:

3/5

Explanation:

60% means 60 out of 100. For example if you get 60 marks in an exam of 100 marks. This means you got 60% marks.

Which is 60/100. This fraction can further be reduced to 6/10 [divide both numerator and denominator by 10)

6/10 = 3/5 [divide both numerator and denominator by 2)

So, the reduced form of 60% =3/5
