To determine if the fractions and decimals are equivalent to 30%, we need to convert 30% into decimal and fraction forms.

  1. 30% as a Decimal:

    • 30% = 30/100 = 0.30
  2. Now, let's evaluate each option:

  • 0.30: Equivalent (since it is equal to 30%)

  • 3.0: Not Equivalent (3.0 is equal to 300%)

  • 30/100 (or 30100): Equivalent (since it simplifies to 0.30 or 30%)

  • 6/20 (or 620): Equivalent (since 6/20 simplifies to 3/10, which is equal to 30%)

  • 0.3: Equivalent (0.3 is the same as 0.30)

Final Selection:

  • 0.30: Equivalent
  • 3.0: Not Equivalent
  • 30100: Equivalent
  • 620: Not Equivalent
  • 0.3: Equivalent

Make sure to clarify 620: if it refers to the fraction 6/20, then it is equivalent. If it is just the number 620, then it is not equivalent.
