Success rate as reduced fraction=5/8

Success rate as percentage= 62.5%

Further explanation:

The formula for success percentage is given by:

[tex]Success\ percentage= \frac{Successful\ tries}{Total\ number\ of\ tries}*100[/tex]

Given

Successful Tries: 50

Total Tries: 80

So putting the values in the formula gives us;

[tex]Percentage\ success=\frac{50}{80}*100\\=0.625*100\\=62.5\%\\Or\\Success\ rate\ as\ reduced\ fraction= \frac{Successful\ tries}{Total\ number\ of\ tries}\\=\frac{50}{80}\\=\frac{5}{8}[/tex]

Success rate as reduced fraction=5/8

Success rate as percentage= 62.5%
