Hey, everyone here, we are asked to rewrite our percentage value as a simplified fraction and in decimal notation. So taking a look at our given percentage here, we have 90%. And we can begin this problem by first finding our simplified fraction here. So we need to recall that a percentage is the value out of 100. So all we have to do is take our percentage value which is 90 divide it by 100 because again, the value is out of 100. So now we just have to simplify this fraction here. Well, we can see that the numerator and the denominator both have a common factor of 10. So we just divide both the numerator and the denominator by 10, which gives us the simplified fraction of 9/10. And now we can move on to writing our percentage in decimal notation. Well, again, we know that a percentage is its value out of 100. So again, we have 90 divided by 100. And this fraction here is converted to dec notation by taking the numerator and dividing it by the denominator. So 90 divided by 10, gives us the equivalent decimal expression of 0.9. And with this, we have found our two solutions and we are left with answer choice. C Thanks for watching. I hope you found this video helpful and I'll see you again next time.
