Answer:

1. 9[tex]\frac{1}{11}[/tex]%

2. 0.45

3. 98.5%

4. 80%

5. Decimal: 0.15, Fraction: [tex]\frac{3}{20}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

When calculating percentage, turn the question to a fraction and multiply the fraction by 100%.

When calculating decimal, turn the question to a fraction out of 100, and turn it into a decimal.

When calculating a fraction in its simplest form, turn the question to a fraction and simplify it.

1. (Percentage)

Fraction: [tex]\frac{1}{11}[/tex]

Percentage: [tex]\frac{1}{11}[/tex] × 100% = 9[tex]\frac{1}{11}[/tex]%

2. (Decimal)

Fraction: [tex]\frac{45}{100}[/tex]

Decimal: 45 ÷ 100 = 0.45

3. (Percentage)

Fraction: 0.985 = [tex]\frac{985}{1000}[/tex]

Percentage: [tex]\frac{985}{1000}[/tex] × 100% = 98.5%

4. (Percentage)

Fraction: [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Percentage: [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] × 100% = 80%

5. (Decimal)

Fraction: 15% = [tex]\frac{15}{100}[/tex]

Decimal: 15 ÷ 100 = 0.15

5. (Fraction)

Fraction: [tex]\frac{15}{100}[/tex]

Simplest form: [tex]\frac{15}{100}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{20}[/tex] (Divide both numerators and denominators by 5)
