The gas tank in Michael's car can hold 18.0 gallons. If the tank currently contains 5.5 gallons, what fraction of the tank is full?
In order to do this you need to know the equation Y=P% times X
You then put the info into the equation so P%= 5.5/18
P then is equal to P%=0.3056
Then you need to convert the decimal into a percent by moving the decimal between the 0 and the 5. Your answer is therefore 30.56% which you need to turn into a fraction. The proper fraction is 30 and 14/25 , the improper fraction is 764/25.
