Answer as a fraction = 1/8

Answer in decimal form = 0.125

Answer in percent form = 12.5%

======================================================

Work Shown:

3 movies are rated G out of 24 total

3/24 = (1*3)/(8*3) = 1/8 is the probability as a fraction

Use the calculator to find that 1/8 = 0.125 = 12.5%
