A ratio of 3:4 is equivalent to which percent?

Converting a ratio to a percent involves turning the first part of the ratio into a fraction of the second part, then changing that fraction to a percent. For 3:4, divide 3 by 4 to get 0.75, which is 75% when converted to a percent. So 3:4 is equivalent to 75%. The other options correspond to 1/2, 3/5, and 1/4, which are not equal to 3/4.
