35% expressed as a fraction is 35/100 

To put it in lowest terms you need to find the largest common factor of 35 and 100 
The only factors of 35 are 1, 35, 5 and 7 
The highest factor of 35 that will divide evenly into 100 is 5 

35/5 
--------- 
100/5 

= 7/20 

Hope this helps.

To solve this, we simply have to put the percentage over 100, since there are only 2 digits to the left of the decimal point to make this a whole number.

35% = [tex] \frac{35}{100} [/tex]

We can see by looking at this that both the numerator and the denominator are divisible by 5, so we can reduce.

[tex] \frac{35 / 5}{100 / 5} = \frac{7}{20} [/tex]

which is your final answer.
35% as a fraction in the lowest term would be [tex] \frac{7}{20} [/tex].
Hope that helped! =)
