What is a percentage?

A percentage means "for every one hundred". So if you get a hit 27 times for every 100 times you are at bat, your percentage and Batting Average is .270, which represents 27 percent.Percentages are actually fractions with a denominator of 100, hence the percentage sign:% looks a bit like 2 zeros. It is a part of something, with 0% being none of something, and 100% being all of it (e.g. n% of a pizza, n% of your life, even n% of a number).A percentage is something out of 100. Like 50% is 50/100 or 1/2.A percent is a number expressed with a % sign that represents a fraction with a denominator of 100 (which is the same as a decimal in which the decimal point is moved two places to the left).Examples:45% = 45/10045% = 0.4587% = 87/10087% = 0.87Many people use percent and percentage interchangeably. However, sometimes they are differentiated by percent meaning "per 100" and percentage meaning the actual quantity (i.e., the percent multiplied by the number of which a percent is being taken).Example:2% of 500 = 10; 2 is the percent and 10 is the percentage10% of 30 = 3; 10 is the percent and 3 is the percentageExample of use in a sentence:What is the percent of people who ordered the pepperoni pizza? 65%What is the percentage of people who ordered the pepperoni pizza? 961There is also a suggested difference in use in rules of grammar. Percent must be used with a number, but percentage is used when there is not a number.Example:He wasted 30 percent of the food when he forgot to put it in the refrigerator.He wasted a significant percentage of the food when he forgot to put it in the refrigerator.

How do you get a percentage from an amount?

A percentage is a ratio. You cannot obtain a ratio from an amount. You have something to compare it to. For instance, if you have 4 slices of pizza out of a pie that had 8 slices you have 4/8 of the pizza. To convert it to a percentage you divide the numerator by the denominator (4 divided by 8) and then multiply by 100. This gives you 50, so you have 50% of the pizza.

What is the definition of a fraction with lots of detail?

Suppose you and your friend go to a pizza parlor, then the shop owner divides the pizza into say 8 slices, then each of you gets 4 slices, that is 4 slices out of a toal of 8 slices It is like saying that each of you got 4/8 (four out of 8) slices or essentially 1/2 pizza Now if three of you go to get pizza, you cannot divide 8 slices equally among three, so you ask the shop owner to divide the pizza into 9 equal slices. That way each of you will get 3/9 (three out of 9) slices or essentially 1/3 pizza Fractions are used to deal with situations where you have to divide a WHOLE thing into several equal parts and deal with them
