Well, to start off you divide 8.5 by 100, this gives you 0.085.
This, when multiplied by 1000 to make it a whole number equals [tex] \frac{85}{1000} [/tex]
When simplified this will equal [tex] \frac{17}{200} [/tex]

[tex]p\%=\frac{p}{100}\\\\8.5\%=\frac{8.5}{100}=\frac{8.5\cdot10}{100\cdot10}=\boxed{\frac{85}{1000}}=\frac{85:5}{1000:5}=\boxed{\frac{17}{200}}[/tex]
