Answer 2

`\huge\textsf{Hey there!}`

`\large\text{95\% as a fraction}`

`\large\text{We know percentages runs out of 100, so we first divide 95} \\\large\text{from 100 and answer that one to actually solve for your answer}`

`\mathsf{(95)/(100)}`

`\boxed{\mathsf{= \bf 0.95}}\large\checkmark`

`\mathsf{(0.95)/(1)*(100)/(100)}`

`\large\text{CROSS MULTIPLY}`

`\mathsf{\frac{0.95*100\leftarrow \bold{numerator}}{1*100\leftarrow \bold{denominator}}}}`

`\mathsf{0.95*100 = \boxed{\bf 95}}\large\checkmark`

`\mathsf{1*100=\boxed{\bf 100}}\large\checkmark`

`\large\text{NEW EQUATION: }\mathsf{(95)/(100)}`

`\large\text{FINALLY we simplify the fraction}`

`\large\text{Each of your numbers are factors of 5, so we divide both numbers by 5}`

`\mathsf{(95/5)/(100/5)}`

`\mathsf{95/ 5 = \boxed{\bf 19}\large\checkmark\leftarrow \underline{numerator}}`

`\mathsf{100/5 = \boxed{\bf 20}\large\checkmark\leftarrow \underline{denominator}}`

`\boxed{= \mathsf{\bf(19)/(20)}}\huge\checkmark`

`\boxed{\boxed{\huge\textsf{Answer: }\mathsf{\bf (19)/(20)}}} \huge\checkmark`

`\large\textsf{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}`
