54% is 54/100

Simplify (divide by 2)
54/2=27
100/2=50

54% is 54 out of 100.
There for the numerator is 54 and the denominator is 100.

[tex] \frac{54}{100} [/tex]

Now, both the top and the bottom can be divided by 2. So:

[tex] \frac{54~divided~by~2}{100~divided~by~2} [/tex] = [tex] \frac{27}{50} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{27}{50} [/tex] can't be simplified anymore, therefore, 27/50 is 54% as a fraction.

~Hope this helped :)
