To find the fraction representing the portion of the paints that are watercolors or acrylics, we first need to determine the fraction of each type of paint individually.

The artist's paint set contains 30% watercolors, which can be written as a fraction as 30/100 or simplified as 3/10.

Similarly, the paint set contains 25% acrylics, which can be written as a fraction as 25/100 or simplified as 1/4.

To find the fraction representing the portion of the paints that are watercolors or acrylics, we add the fractions together:

3/10 + 1/4

First, let's find the common denominator for these fractions, which is 20:

3/10 = 6/20
1/4 = 5/20

Now, we can add the fractions together:

6/20 + 5/20 = 11/20

Therefore, the fraction representing the portion of the paints that are watercolors or acrylics is 11/20.
