Answer 2

Answer:

13.5% = 27/200 as a fraction

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert 13.5 percent to a fraction follow these steps:

Step 1: Write down the percent divided by 100 like this:

13.5% = 13.5/100

Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point:

As we have 1 digit after the decimal point, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 10, or, simply shift 1 decimal place to the right. So,

13.5/100 = (13.5 x 10)/(100 x 10) = 135/1000.

Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the above fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) between them. In this case, GCD(135,1000) = 5. So,

(135÷5)/(1000÷5) = 27/200 when reduced to the simplest form.
