To find which fraction is equal to 35%, we need to express 35% as a fraction. A percentage is a fraction out of 100, so 35% can be directly written as the fraction 35/100. We then compare this fraction to the given options to find the correct match.
Step 1: Express 35% as a Fraction
To convert \( 35\% \) to a fraction, we use the definition of percentage:
\[
35\% = \frac{35}{100}
\]
Step 2: Compare with Given Options
We have the following options to compare:
A: \( \frac{3.5}{100} \)
B: \( \frac{100}{35} \)
C: \( \frac{35}{100} \)
D: \( \frac{100}{350} \)
Step 3: Identify the Correct Option
