How to turn a fraction into a . and percent?

To turn a fraction into a percent, enter the fraction into a calculator. You should get something with a decimal place in. Now multiply this decimal by "100" (imagine the decimal place "hopping" 2 places to the right to mulitply by 100 in your head). You now have your fraction as a percentage. A decimal only has to be multiplied by 100 to turn it into a percentage. Again, imagine the decimal place (the dot) "hopping" two places to the right on the decimal that you have. (One hop to the right is a multiplication of 10, one more hop is a multiplication of 100. You can move the decimal place left to divide by 10's, 100's, and even 1000's etc...).
