Question 92 (a)

Write the following as rational number in their standard forms.
35%

Answer 1

Given, $=\frac{35}{100}$

By using prime factorization, we get
$35=7\times 5$ and $100=2\times 2\times 5\times 5$
$\therefore HCFof35and100=5$
On dividing numerator and denominator by their HCF, we get
$\frac{35÷5}{100÷5}=\frac{7}{20}$
