A percentage is a number out of 100. For example, 40% is 40 out of 100, so it can be written as a fraction 40/100. This can then be simplified to 4/10 by dividing the top and bottom of the fraction by 10. Then simplifed to 2/5 by dividing the top and the bottom of the fraction by 2.

So 40% as a fraction is 2/5

Just get the denominator and put it next to %.

For example, 25 out of 100, get the 25 and put it next to the % which makes 25%
