Question 26

13% expressed as a fraction is 13/100.

To convert a percentage to a fraction, you can place the percentage number over 100, which in this case results in 13/100.

A) 13/1000

This option is incorrect because 13% is equivalent to 13/100, not 13/1000. The latter would suggest that 13% is a much smaller value than it actually represents.

B) 13/100

This is the correct answer as it accurately reflects the conversion of 13% into its fractional form. A percentage indicates a part per hundred, and thus 13% is represented as 13 over 100.

C) {10/13}

This option is incorrect because it does not represent the correct fraction for 13%. Instead, 10/13 would imply a different percentage, which does not relate to the conversion of 13%.

D) 13-Oct

This option is incorrect as it does not represent a proper fraction or a numeric value. "Oct" does not have relevance in the context of converting a percentage to a fraction.

Conclusion

The correct answer, 13/100, precisely captures the essence of converting 13% into a fraction. All other options either misrepresent the fraction or do not connect to the percentage concept, affirming that B is the definitive answer.
