Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to write 24 as a fraction of 60, which is simply

24/60

In order to find the simplest form of the fraction 24/60 we cancel out the greatest common divisor of 24 and 60, which is 12 :

24/60=2/5

Now we just need to convert this fraction to a percentage :

2/5 = 40
