1. IF the original fraction has a denominator (bottom number) that is a factor of 100 (in other words you can multiply something with the denominator to get the answer of 100), you can use the following procedure to turn it into a percent.
a. Figure out what number has to be multiplied with the denominator to make 100. Now, multiply both the numerator (the top number) and the denominator (the bottom number) with the special number required to get 100. EX: 3/25
Hmmm, I'd need to multiply 25 (4) in order to make 100. So, I'll multiply both the top and the bottom of the fraction by 4.
3/25 X 4/4 = 12/100.
b. Now I've renamed 3/25 as 12/100. "Percent" means "for every 100". The new fraction tells me there are 12 for every 100.
So, the percent equivalent for 3/25 is 12%
2. IF the original fraction's denominator (bottom number) is not a factor of 100 (in other words, there isn't anything you can multiply with it to get 100), then you'll need to use division to find the percent equivalent. This is trickier and requires you to know how to divide by hand, or you can use a calculator.
a. You will divide the denominator (bottom number) into the numerator (top number).
EX: 4/7 = ? %
4 divided by 7 is 0.5714 (the decimal actually goes on longer than this)
b. Now that you have a decimal, move the decimal point two places to the right. The percent for the above decimal is 57.14%
Hope this helps.
To convert a fraction into a percent is quite simple. Just divide the numerator (top number) into the denominator (bottom number). Most of the time you will need a calculator but for simple factions, like 1/4, you may not need one. If the fraction we wanted to convert to a percentage was 1/4, you would just divide 100 by 4. What ever number you get is one fourth of 100.
No, they are not.

They are all real numbers. All fractions can be expressed as percentages but not all percentages can be represented as fractions.
Convert them to one or the other. Your answer will usually be more accurate if you're adding fractions.
you can write pers or %
They are all the same, fractions can be turned into percents and percents can be turned into fractions. hope that helps :)
fractions and percents u dumbasses
No, they are not.

They need to know about decimals, fractions, and percents because they need to know the exact measures of the things they are designing.
you eat pie
decimals fractions and percents are all alike because they show parts of 100, per 100(percent, cent representing for 100, century)
When you have 60% in fractions it is 60/100, because percent is alwase out of 100.
They are all real numbers. All fractions can be expressed as percentages but not all percentages can be represented as fractions.
58 = 5,800% or 580/100
Convert them to decimals.
A proportion is when you make fractions into percents
