How do you write two ninths as a percentage?

Answer 1

2/9 written as a percentage is 22.2%. Every fraction is a division problem (e.g., 1/2 is 1 divided by 2). 2 ninths, or 2/9, is 2 divided by 9. The answer, if you write it out on paper, is 0.222 -- which is approximately 22%. Percentage is an amount out of 100 (100 being the whole). 50% is 50 out of 100, for example. 0.222 reads as 222 one-thousandths (to the right of decimal point is tenths, hundredths, thousandths, etc.). To know how many out 100 is 0.222, move the decimal point TWO places to the right. 0.222 becomes 22.2, so it is 22.2%.
