To divide one fraction (the dividend) by another (the divisor), invert the divisor and multiply the fractions together:
eg 2/35 ÷ 4/5 = 2/35 × 5/4
= (2×5)/(35×4)
= 10/140
= 1/14

To convert a fraction to a percent, divide the denominator into the numerator and multiply the result by 100. 3/4 = 3 divided by 4 = 0.75 = 75% To take a percentage of a fraction, convert both the fraction and the percentage to decimals and multiply: 75% of 3/4 = 0.75 x 0.75 = 0.5625 = 9/16 Or convert the percentage to a fraction and multiply: 75% of 3/4 = 3/4 of 3/4 = 9/16
Take one step. Now, measure how long that step was in inches. Take that figure and divide it into (4* 5280 * 12). That will equal how many steps it would take for 4 miles.
For the first fraction, divide the give denominator into the LCD, take that result and multiply by the given numerator to create a new numerator for the LCD. Repeat for each fraction.
To convert a percentage to a fraction, you divide the percentage by 100 and simplify the fraction if possible. In this case, 170 percent divided by 100 is 1.7. Therefore, 170 percent as a fraction is 1.7/1, which simplifies to 17/10.
You can take any percent and divide it by 100 to get the appropriate fraction. In this example, 65 percent as a fraction would be: 65/100 = 13/20 This even works if the percent is over 100. For example, 325 percent as a fraction would be:: 325/100 = 13/4 or 3 1/4
