What is 12 out of 15 written as a decimal, fraction, and a percent?
.8 , 4/5 and 80% because if you divide both numbers by 3 you get 4/5
Answer: As a decimal → 0.8
As a fraction→\(\frac{12}{15}\) or \(\frac{12}{15}\)
As a percent→ 80%
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write 12 out of 15 in fraction as \(\frac{12}{15}\)
Rewrite it in simplest form by dividing 3 from both numerator and the denominator, we get
\(\frac{4}{5}\)
To write this in decimal form, just divide the numerator by denominator, we get
\(\frac{4}{5}=0.8\)
To write this in percent, multiply the decimal number to 100, we get
\(0.8\times100=80\%\)
