Answer:

Fractional form =
(95)/(100)=(19)/(20)

Percent form = 95%

Trisha got 95% of her problems correct.

Explanation:

Given:

Total number of questions (N) = 100

Number of correct questions (C) = 95

Therefore, the ratio of the correct answers to the total number of problems is given by dividing the the number of correct questions by the total number of questions. This is given as:

Ratio expressed as a fraction =
(C)/(N)=(95)/(100)=(95/ 5)/(100/ 5)=(19)/(20)(Simplest\ form)

Now in order to express this ratio in percentage form, we need to multiply the given ratio by 100. This gives,

Ratio expressed as a percent =
(C)/(N)* 100=(95)/(100)* 100=95\%

Therefore, Trisha got 95% of her problems correct.
