How do you change percents to fraction?

Answer 1

This topic might come up a lot so in order for u to convert a fraction into a percent you need to know how to convert fractions. Now the word percent mean " out of 100 " so if for example you had the fraction 25/50 to convert it into a 100th you would have to multiply. So, 25/50 = x/100. 50x2= 100 so now you would multiply 25x2=50 your answer is 50/100=50%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
To convert a percentage into a fraction, simply divide the percentage by 100. Then, if you wish, simplify the fraction. Here are some examples:

100% = 100/100 = 1

80% = 80/100 = 4/5

75% = 75/100 = 3/4

27% = 27/100

Answer 2

Put the number over a hundred and keep simplifying until you can't anymore, and still have a whole number on the bottom.Ex:

28%

28/100

14/50

7/25, so this is your number since you can't divide it anymore since they would then be decimals in the fraction.

Answer 3

Divide the numerical percent value by 100.

x% = x/100 as a fraction.

It may be necessary to divide this out:-

e.g. 40% = 40/100 = 4/10 = 2/5

Decimal places in the percent produce more complications:-

e.g. 2.5% = 2.5/100 = 25/1000 = 1/40

Answer 4

You divide the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number) then multipy it by a hundred

Answer 5

Take the numerator and divide it by the denominator (divide top by bottom). Take that answer and multiply it by 100.

Example:

1) 1/2=.5

2) .5x100=50%

3) 1/2=50%
