What is 87 percent as a fraction in its lowest terms?
Oh, dude, you're hitting me with some math here. So, like, 87 percent is the same as 87/100, and if we simplify that bad boy, it becomes 87/100 because, like, 87 is a prime number and 100 is like, well, 100. So, yeah, 87 percent as a fraction in its lowest terms is 87/100.
What is 0.87 in a percent?
To convert any decimal to percent, simply multiply the decimal by 100. So, 0.87 × 100 = 87%
How do you change a percent with a fraction into a fraction?
Ahh... A percent with a fraction? Are you thinking decimal?? Anyways, 1% is 1/100. 10% is 1/10. 25% is 1/4. 50% is 1/2. 75% is 3/4. 100% is 1/1. Get it? Okay now add the fraction in the percent to the fraction that the percent is equivalent to. So if you had like 57% and 3/10, you would do this. 57/100 + 3/10. Okay, so you see how the denominators aren't the same? Find the GCF. (Greatest common factor.) So, just do this: 57/100 + 30/100. (I multiplied 10 to 100 in 3/10, and then you have to do the same with the numerator.) So the answer would be 87/100. You cannot simplify this fraction.
