In the state of New Mexico, 85% of the land is above 4,000 feet in elevation. Which fraction is equivalent to 85%?
A 4
5
B
100
17
20
1
85

 17/20

Work Shown:

x% = x/100

85% = 85/100

85% = (17*5)/(20*5)

85% = 17/20

You could also go through all the answer choices to see what works and what doesn't.

For instance, 4/5 = 0.80 = 80%, so that is a non-answer.

But 17/20 = 0.85 = 85% which is the answer.
