To find the fraction of the class that received an A on the test, we need to divide the number of students who received an A by the total number of students in the class.
Given that out of 25 students, only 5 received A's, the fraction would be 5/25.
However, we are asked to write the answer in simplest form. To simplify a fraction, we need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and the denominator, and divide both by that value. In this case, both 5 and 25 have a GCD of 5.
Dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 5, we get:
5 ÷ 5 / 25 ÷ 5
1/5
Therefore, the fraction of the class that received an A on the test is 1/5.
