Any kind of fraction becomes decimal notation if you divide the denominator into the numerator. Any decimal notation becomes a percent if you multiply it by 100.

What is 69 percent as a fraction in lowest terms?

69% as a fraction is 69/100. Since there are no common divisors, it is already in lowest terms.

How do you turn a decimal to its simplest form then into a fraction?

To convert a decimal to a faction in its simplest form depends on the decimal: 1) If it is a terminating decimal, place the decimal over a 1 followed by the same number of 0s as digits in the decimal and then divide top and bottom by common factors until their only common factor is 1 - these divisions can be done in one step by dividing by their highest common factor. Every digit after the decimal point counts, including zeros between the decimal point and the first non-zero number. eg 0.75 has 2 digits after decimal point → 0.75 = 75/100 = 15/20 (divide by common factor 5) = 3/4 (divide by common factor 5); it can be done in one step by dividing by 25: 75/100 = 3/4 - divide by hcf(75, 100) = 25. eg 0.02 also has 2 digits after the decimal point → 0.02 = 02/100 = 2/100 = 1/50. 2) If it is a repeating decimal, place the repeating digits over the same number of 9s as the number of repeating digits and simplify as above. eg 0.242424... has 2 repeating digits (24) → 0.242424... = 24/99 = 8/33 eg 0.027027027... has 3 repeating digits (027) → 0.027027027... = 027/999 = 27/999 = 1/37 3) If it has a number of non-repeating digits before repeating digits, then a combination of 1 and 2 is used: put the non-repeating digits over a 1 followed by the same number of 0s as the number of digit, add the fraction formed by the repeating digits over the same number of 9s as the repeating digits followed by the same number of 0s as in the first fraction, and simplify the result. eg 0.08333... has 2 digits (0.08) followed by 1 repeating digit (3) → 0.08333... = 08/100 + 3/900 = 72/900 + 3/900 = 75/900 = 1/12 4) Any non-terminating, non-repeating decimal is irrational and cannot be converted into a fraction. eg √2 (= 1.41421...) cannot be represented as a fraction; eg π (= 3.14159...; pi - the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter) cannot be represented as a fraction.


How do you know if the fraction that is the sum is in simplest?

The fraction will be in its simplest form when the highest common factor of the numerator and denominator is 1


Fraction into simplest form?

you find the GCF (GREATEST COMMON FACTOR) then you divide or multiply you can pick and then you get you simplest from of the fraction

The common fraction percent an decimal table?

You can get the decimal equivalent of a fraction, by dividing the numerator by the denominator. For example, to convert 1/3 to a decimal, you divide 1 by 3. This is equal to 0.333333... If you need this as a percentage, you multiply by 100; in this case, 33.3333...%

How do you turn 1.61percent into a fraction?

Percent means out of 100, so put it over 100; then simplify it: first multiply top and bottom by a common factor to get rid of the decimal point, then divide by any common factors.That's how to do it, this is the answer to "What is 1.61 percent as a fraction?":1.61 % = 1.61/100= (1.61 x 100)/(100 x 100)= 161/10000


What is15 percent in a common fraction?

How do you change 65 percent to a fraction?

When you change a percentage to a fraction the denominator (bottom number) of the fraction will always be 100. The percentage will be the numerator (top number), so 65% as a fraction is 65/100. This can then be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 5. The final answer is 13/20.
