Answer
$\frac{3}{50}=.06=6$%
Work Step by Step
We are given the fraction $\frac{3}{50}$.
We know that $\frac{3}{50}=3\div50=(3\times2)
\div(50\times2)=6\div100=.06$
To write $\frac{3}{50}$ as a percentage, we can set $\frac{3}{50}$ equal to $\frac{p}{100}$ (where p is the percentage representation of the given fraction) and take the cross products to solve for p.
$\frac{3}{50}=\frac{p}{100}$
$3\times100=50\times p$
$300=50p$
Divide both sides by 50.
$p=6$%
Therefore, $\frac{3}{50}=.06=6$%.
