Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To convert a mixed number percentage to a fraction, we first convert the whole number part to a fraction by multiplying it by 100 (since a percentage is out of 100). Then we add the fraction part and simplify. So, we have:
$$19 \frac { 2 } { 5 } \% = \frac{(19	imes100)+2}{5	imes100} = \frac{192}{1000} = \frac{24}{125}$$
So, the best choice is D, which is equivalent to $\frac{24}{125}$.
