To convert 35% to a fraction, you can write it as:

\[ \frac{35}{100} \]

Next, to reduce the fraction, you can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 5:

\[ \frac{35 \div 5}{100 \div 5} = \frac{7}{20} \]

So, the correct answer is \( \frac{7}{20} \).

When reducing a fraction, you should first find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerator and the denominator. This is the largest number that divides both of them without leaving a remainder, and it helps you simplify the fraction to its lowest terms.

So, the correct answer is the greatest common factor.
