what is 5 1/2% as a fraction in simplest form????
For this case we have the following mixed number as a percentage:
\(5\frac{1}{2}\)%
We can rewrite the mixed number as a rational number (both in percentage).
We have then:
\(5\frac{1}{2}=\frac{10+1}{2}\) %
\(5\frac{1}{2}=\frac{11}{2}\) %
Then, we rewrite the fraction as a rational number in a simple form.
We have then:
\(\frac{\frac{11}{2}}{100} = \frac{11}{200}\)
Answer:
5 1/2% as a fraction in simplest form is:
\(\frac{11}{200}\)
