Answer:

[tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Set up the fraction 27/90
  • The numerator (the number above the fraction sign) represents the number of questions Jordan got correct.
  • The denominator (the number below the fraction sign) represents the number of questions on the test.
  • To simplify this equation, divide the numerator and denominator by their Greatest Common Factor (GCF) or continue dividing the numerator and denominator by the same number
  • GCF Method: GCF = 9 so 27/9 = 3 and 90/9 = 10
  • Therefore, the fraction is 3/10
  • Other Method: You know that 27 and 90 can be divided by 3, so divide both numbers by 3. 27/3 = 9 and 90/3 = 30.
  • 9 and 30 can also be divided by 3. 9/3 = 3 and 30/3 = 10.
  • Therefore, the fraction is 3/10
