The fraction 5/51 expressed as a percentage is 9.80%. This value is the result of converting the fraction into a form that is easy to compare with other percentages you might see on a test or in a report.
Seeing 5 out of 51 parts means you have a relatively small piece of a whole. In everyday terms, if you had 51 slices of pizza and ate 5 of them, you would have eaten about ten percent of the pizza. The percentage gives a quick sense of size without needing to think about the exact number of slices.
Because the number was rounded to two decimal places, the answer is shown as 9.80 % instead of a longer string of digits. This rounded figure is usually precise enough for school projects, budgeting, or any situation where a simple percentage is helpful.
