It is only possible if the denominator of the fraction, in its simplest form, is a factor of 100.

In that case, find the number of times the denominator goes into 100 and then multiply the numerator of the fraction by that number.

For example, suppose the given fraction is 17/20.

The denominator, 20, goes into 100 five times.

Therefore, multiply the numerator, 17, by 5 to give the answer as 85/100.

Note that this is not possible for even simple fractions like 1/3 because 3 does not go into 100 evenly.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
