The problem asks us to determine which sign (>, <, or =) makes the statement $98\% \text{ ? } \frac{3}{5}$ true.

1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to determine which sign (>, <, or =) makes the statement $98\% \text{ ? } \frac{3}{5}$ true.

2. Solution Steps

First, we need to convert the fraction $\frac{3}{5}$ to a percentage or the percentage to a fraction to make a direct comparison. Let's convert the fraction $\frac{3}{5}$ to a percentage. To do this, we can divide 3 by 5:

$\frac{3}{5} = 0.6$

Now, convert the decimal to a percentage by multiplying by 100:

$0.6 \times 100 = 60\%$

So, $\frac{3}{5}$ is equal to $60\%$.

Now we can compare $98\%$ and $60\%$.

Since 98 is greater than 60, $98\% > 60\%$.

Therefore, $98\% > \frac{3}{5}$.

3. Final Answer

$98\% > \frac{3}{5}$
