Convert a fraction to decimal and percent

Problem

Write \(3/5\) as a decimal and a percent.

Big Picture

What this problem is really about

A fraction names a division, so the decimal comes from dividing the numerator by the denominator rather than combining their digits. We’ll then rewrite that decimal in hundredths and read the equivalent percent. Reducing the percent’s fraction back to lowest terms provides a clean equivalence check without changing the value.
