or ,

[tex]\quad \longrightarrow \qquad \: \dfrac{85}{100}[/tex]

Reducing the fraction by cancelling it by 5 :

[tex] \quad \longrightarrow \qquad \: \dfrac{ \cancel{85}}{ \cancel{100}}[/tex]

We get :

[tex] \quad \longrightarrow \qquad \: \pink{\underline{\boxed{\frak{\dfrac{17}{20} }}}} \quad \bigstar[/tex]
