As a decimal number: 65/100 = 0.65.

As a percentage: 65/100 = 65%

Answer 2

Answer:

65% as a fraction in its lowest term = $\frac{13}{20}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given percentage = 65%

If the numerator and denominator of a fraction are relatively prime, that is, they have no common factors other than 1, the fraction is said to be written in lowest terms.

Follow these steps to convert a fraction into its simplest terms:

• We know that dividing a percentage by 100 yields a fraction.
• To convert the fraction to its simplest form, divide both the numerator and denominator by the same number until further division is impossible.

Divide the percentage by 100 to get the fraction.

Fractional form of 65% is $\frac{65}{100}$

Divide the fraction's numerator and denominator by the same number to get the lowest term.

By dividing both numerator and denominator of the fraction by 5, we get

= $\frac{65/ 5}{100/5}$

= $\frac{13}{20}$

As numerator and denominator are relatively prime, it is not possible to simplify the fraction $\frac{13}{20}$.

Therefore, lowest term of 65% is $\frac{13}{20}$.
