Solution Steps

To write the percent proportion, we need to set up a proportion where the part (12 pictures) is to the whole (60 pictures) as the percent (20%) is to 100. This can be expressed as:

\[ \frac{12}{60} = \frac{20}{100} \]

Step 1: Set Up the Proportion

We need to express the relationship between the part and the whole in terms of the percent. The percent proportion can be set up as:

\[ \frac{12}{60} = \frac{20}{100} \]

Step 2: Calculate the Proportions

Calculating the left side:

\[ \frac{12}{60} = 0.2 \]

Calculating the right side:

\[ \frac{20}{100} = 0.2 \]

Step 3: Compare the Proportions

Both sides of the equation yield the same value:

\[ 0.2 = 0.2 \]

This confirms that the percent proportion is correct.

Final Answer

The percent proportion is

\[ \boxed{0.2} \]
