Forty percent of the pupils ride to school. What fraction ( in lowest term ) of the pupils ride to school?​

Sagot :

40% = 40/100

40/100 = 2/5

Therefore, 2/5 of the pupils ride to school.

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of pupils is 100% and the 40% is the pupils who ride to school in fraction, it is 40/100 Since you asked for the lowest term divide both of them of their GCF then you will find the answer: Their lowest term is 20 so

40÷20=2

100÷20=5

so the answer is 2/5

I am having trouble with my explanations :/
