    Hello there!

    To find the fraction of applicants that are accepted into the Ivy League college, all you have to do is put the number of students accepted (numerator) over the total number of students that apply (denominator). This makes the fraction 5/100. This fraction can be simplified. To simplified, find the GCF of the two numbers. The GCF of 5 and 100 is 5. Divide both parts by 5. 5/100 : 5/5 is 1/20. There. 5/100 is 1/20 in simplest form. The Ivy League college accepts 1/20 of it's applicants.
