Algebra.Com's Answer #7120 by Alwayscheerful(414)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! First, a percent is something over 100. In mathamatical form, X/100. Since you have 48%, you can change that to 48/100. \n" ); document.write( "You may think that is the answer, and in a way it is, but you must REDUCE. Find the greatest common factor of 48 and 100. You can also do it the easier way of dividing top and bottom by 2 \n" ); document.write( "48/100 = 24/50 = 12/25 \n" ); document.write( "You final answer should be 12/25 \n" ); document.write( " |
