Answer

1/125

Work Step by Step

In order to write a percent as a fraction, we take the percent and then divide by 100. Thus, we turn 4/5% into the fraction: 4/5/100. Whenever a fraction is divided by a whole number, we multiply that whole number by the denominator of the fraction. Thus, 4/5/100 is the same as 4/500, which simplifies to 1/125.
