yes
thanks I need that answer for IxL thanks all lot !
To convert a percentage to a fraction, you divide the percentage value by 100 and simplify the resulting fraction, if possible.
For 130%, divide 130 by 100:
130 ÷ 100 = 1.3
So, 130% is equal to 1.3 in decimal form.
To convert the decimal to a fraction, you can write it as a fraction with the decimal number as the numerator and 1 as the denominator:
1.3/1
Since there is a decimal in the numerator, you can move the decimal point one place to the right to get a whole number in the numerator:
13/10
So, 130% can be written as the fraction 13/10.
To simplify this fraction, you need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and denominator, and then divide both numbers by the GCD.
The GCD of 13 and 10 is 1, so dividing both numbers by 1 does not change the fraction.
Therefore, 13/10 is already in its simplest form and cannot be further simplified.
As a mixed number, you can divide the numerator (13) by the denominator (10) to find the whole number part and the remaining fraction:
13 ÷ 10 = 1 remainder 3
So, 13/10 expressed as a mixed number in simplest form is 1 3/10.
