Multiply by 100 and, if necessary, simplify.
For example:
1/2 = 100*1/2 = 10/2 = 50%
1/10 = 100*1/10 = 100/10 = 10%
First, change the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100.
75 percent = 0.75
0.75 = 75/100 = 3/4
Divide the numerator by the denominator, then multiply the result by 100. For example... What is 5 over 8 as a percentage?
5 divided by 8 = 0.625
0.625 * 100 = 62.5%
Divide the numerator by the denominator to get a decimal. Multiply the decimal by 100 and that is the percent.
Fractions are integers divided by integers. Percentages are the number of hundredths.
change the fraction into a decimal then multiply by 100
They are ways of calculating and comparing parts of wholes.
to change dessimilar fractions to similar fractions you divide
Well one good thing that percentages do is they condense numbers so you can compare then more easily.
