42.5% = 42.5/100 (this is the definition of percent (out of 100)).

However, 42.5/100 is not a very neat fraction.

So multiply the numerator and denomenator by 2:

85/200

Then simplify. There is a common factor of 5 so it is equal to 17/40. 17 is a Prime number so this is the most simplified version of the fraction.
