If we remember that all percentages are based off 100% then we know that any percent is going to be over 100.

A way to remember this would be - Imagine you received a test back and you got 97 out of 100 correct. Well that would give you a 97%. If you got a 62 or 35 out of a 100, it would be 62% or 35%.

So we know the answer is 35/100. Now to reduce it - we need to find a common factor of both numbers. Anytime a number ends in five (5), we can assume 5 is a factor of it.

35/5 / 100/5 = 7/20

So the correct final answer is: 35% reduced to it's simplest form is 7/20.
