3/10 is an easy way to represent 30%, but since you are including what you already have you have to add 100% or 10/10. This means the fraction that would represent it is 13/10.

The fraction (13/10) can be used as the multiplier to find the length of the new side.

Suppose the length of the side of a square is x.

The new length of the side of the square after an increment of 30%

= x+ (30% of x).

What is the percentage?

The percentage is the value per hundred.

So, 30% of x = 30*x/100 =0.3x

So, new length of the side = x+0.3x =1.3x

We can represent 1.3x as (13/10)x

This means we have multiplied the previous length by the fraction 13/10 in order to get an increment of 30%.

Thus, The fraction (13/10) can be used as the multiplier to find the length of the new side.
