0.6% as a fraction

 

Answer

 

The answer for 0.6% as a fraction is 3/500.

 

Explanation

 

Converting a percentage to a fraction is a straightforward process. You can follow the steps outlined below to find the answer.

 

Step 1: First, understand that 0.6% means 0.6 per 100, which can be written as 0.6/100.

 

Step 2: To remove the decimal from the numerator, multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 10 (since there is one decimal place). 0.6/100 × 10/10 = 6/1000

 

Step 3: Now, simplify the fraction by finding the GCD of 6 and 1000, which is 2. Divide both the numerator and the denominator by 2. 6/1000 = 3/500

 

Thus, 0.6% can be written as a fraction 3/500.
