Answer:

16.67%

Explanation:

A fraction consists of two numbers and a fraction bar:

30/180

The number above the bar is the numerator: 30

The number below the bar is the denominator: 180

Divide the numerator by the denominator to get fraction's value:

Val = 30 รท 180

30/180=16.666666667

16.666666667= 16.67%
