5 1/2% as a fraction in simplest form would be \(\frac{11}{200}\)

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:

\(\frac{11}{200}\)
