Answers to Turning fractions in to percentages?

Answer 1

To turn a fraction into a percent, you must convert the fraction into a decimal. Then, convert the decimal into a percent. Here’s how:

Example:

4/9 as a percent is 44.4%

Solution:

1.) Convert the fraction to a decimal by dividing the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number).

4 divided by 9 = 0.4444

2.) Convert the decimal to a percent by moving the decimal point to the right 2 times, or by multiplying by a hundred

0.4444 x 100 = 44.44

So... 4/9 as a percentage is 44.44%
