Yes, they do. Rates are always expressed as "this much of one thing TO that much of another". It is then expressed as a ratio of "this" over "that" (or with a colon instead).

Do rates always have to be expressed as a quotient why?

Yes, because they are a relation between two quantities in the form of an amount x of quantity A per every amount y of quantity B. However, the resulting rate can be an integer. For example, there might be 30 children per class in a school. In fact, this is implicitly the quotient of "30 children"/"1 class".

Why cannot rates be expressed as a percentage?

Rates cannot be expressed as a percentage because rates are typically ratios that compare two different quantities, such as distance traveled per unit of time. Percentages, on the other hand, represent a proportion out of 100. While rates can be converted to percentages by multiplying by 100, they are fundamentally different concepts and are expressed in different ways to accurately convey the relationship between the two quantities being compared.
