Rewrite 26% as a fraction:

26% = 0.26

The 6 is in the hundredths place, so the fraction would be 26 over 100:

26/100

Now simplify the fraction:

Both numbers are even and can be divided by 2:

26/ 2 = 13

100/2 = 50

Simplest form = 13/50

Answer: [tex]\frac{13}{50}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation: Any percent can be written as the percent over 100, as shown below:

[tex]\frac{26}{100}[/tex]

To simplify this, we need to find a number that is divisible into both numbers equally. Well, 2 goes into both 26 and 100! Let's try that:

[tex]\frac{26}{100}[/tex]

26 ÷ 2 = 13

100 ÷ 2 = 50

[tex]\frac{13}{50}[/tex]
