Let's start by turning it into a decimal.
- to turn any percent into a decimal you move the decimal point two places to the left.
Decimal= 5.85

To turn into fraction you know 5 is the whole number and you have 85 hundredths. Just put that in fraction form.
5 and 85/100
Now simplify by dividing both by 5
Answer is
5 and 17/20
