Answer:
The fraction equivalent to the amount of Jenny's hair the stylist cut off is [tex]\frac{9}{25}[/tex] inch.
The percentage equivalent to the amount of Jenny's hair the stylist cut off is 36% inch.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, the stylist cut 0.36 inch off Jenny's hair.
To determine what fraction is equivalent to the amount of Jenny's hair the stylist cut off, we will express 0.36 inch as a fraction.
[tex]0.36 = \frac{36}{100}[/tex]
Then, we will reduce [tex]\frac{36}{100}[/tex] to a fraction in its lowest term
[tex]\frac{36}{100} = \frac{9}{25}[/tex]
Hence, the fraction equivalent to the amount of Jenny's hair the stylist cut off is [tex]\frac{9}{25}[/tex] inch.
For the percentage equivalent to the amount of Jenny's hair the stylist cut off, we will express [tex]\frac{9}{25}[/tex] as a percentage. That is
[tex]\frac{9}{25} \times 100[/tex]%
= 36%
Hence, the percentage equivalent to the amount of Jenny's hair the stylist cut off is 36% inch.
