Answer:

17/28

60.7%

17:28

11/28

39.3%

11:28

Difference:
(3)/(14)

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction can be turned into a percent by dividing the numerator by the denominator and multiplying the result by 100%.

For example:

17/28 = 0.607

0.607 * 100% = 60.7%

A fraction can be turned into a ratio by writing it like this:

numerator:denominator

For example:

11/28

11:28

To find the difference between 2 fractions with the same denominator, simply subtract the 2 numerators.

For example:


(17)/(28) - (11)/(28)

You subtract 11 from 17, then put the resulting 6 in the fraction with the same denominator. This results in
(6)/(28) which can be simplified to
(3)/(14).
