Solution

  1. First, you create a fraction with 17 as the numerator (top number) and 20 as the denominator (bottom number). So, it would look like this: 17/20.

  2. Next, you need to convert this fraction into a decimal. You do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator. So, you would divide 17 by 20. The result is 0.85.

  3. Finally, to convert this decimal into a percentage, you multiply by 100. So, 0.85 x 100 = 85.

Therefore, 17 is 85% of 20.
