I got a score of 90.5%. My mom told me it’s always nice to help people. I won’t write the full question just part of it so you know. Connexus Lesson 11: Ratios, Proportions and Percents Unit Test

Well, well, well, let's review your choices, my friend.

You chose B: 0.85 and C: 85/100.

Now, B: 0.85 is equivalent to 85% because it represents 85 parts out of 100, just like percentages do. Good choice!

And as for C: 85/100, well, that's just a fancy way of writing the fraction equivalent to 85%. So, yep, that's another correct choice!

So, congratulations! You selected the correct options. B: 0.85 and C: 85/100 are both equivalent to 85%. Remember, fractions and decimals can also be used to express percentages. Keep up the good work!

To determine which of the options are equivalent to 85%, we need to understand what percentage means. A percentage is a way to express a part of a whole, where the whole is represented by 100%.

To find the equivalent of 85%, we divide 85 by 100 (percentage divided by 100). Here's how you can do it:

Option A: 0.085
To convert a decimal to a percentage, you move the decimal point two places to the right. In this case, 0.085 becomes 8.5%. Since it is not 85%, it is not equivalent to 85%.

Option B: 0.85
Again, to convert a decimal to a percentage, you move the decimal point two places to the right. In this case, 0.85 becomes 85%, which is equivalent to 85%. So, this option is correct.

Option C: 85/100
This fraction can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 5, resulting in 17/20. Since it is not 85%, it is not equivalent to 85%.

Option D: 19/20
This fraction is not equivalent to 85%. So, it is not correct.

In summary, the options that are equivalent to 85% are:

B: 0.85
C: 85/100
