Question

quiz
23 fill in the blank 4 points
write the following percent as a fraction in lowest terms:
64%
type your answer...

Explanation:

Step1: Convert percent to fraction

A percent means "per hundred", so \( 64\%=\frac{64}{100} \).

Step2: Simplify the fraction

Find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 64 and 100. The factors of 64 are \( 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 \), and the factors of 100 are \( 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 100 \). The GCD of 64 and 100 is 4. Divide both the numerator and the denominator by 4: \( \frac{64\div4}{100\div4}=\frac{16}{25} \).

Answer:

\(\frac{16}{25}\)
