46.15%

Explanation:

for the decimal part, simply use long division (or a calculator) and divide 13 into 6

#6div13#

13 goes into 6 zero times, add a decimal and some zeroes in your notes. 13 goes into "60" 4 times - write 52 under the 6.0 and subtract. the difference is 8. bring down the next zero. 13 goes into 80 6 times. carry on as needed.

to convert decimal into percentage, multiply the answer by 100 or simply move the decimal point two places to the right and add the percent sign (%).
