The fraction 7/20 is equal to 35.00% when converted to a percentage and rounded to two decimal places. This means that 7 out of 20 parts represent just over a third of the whole. It's a bit more than one-third (33.33%) but less than two-fifths (40%).
In everyday situations, you might come across 7/20 or 35% in various contexts. For example, if 7 out of 20 students in a class wear glasses, that's 35% of the class. Or if you're looking at a sale where items are discounted by 35%, you're essentially getting a price reduction of 7/20ths off the original cost. Understanding these equivalent representations can be helpful in quickly estimating proportions or discounts in real-life scenarios.
