Cent is the Greek root that means "hundred." So the phrase"per cent" means per hundred. Because fractions are just another way of expressing ratios 200 per every hundred can be written as the ratio (Most people find ratios easier to work with than fractions) 200:100. This can be translated to the fraction 200/100. Crossing out the zeroes (dividing by 100) you get 2/1 which further reduces to the whole number 2. Therefore 200/100 = 2
