because you get percents from your fraction-for example 5/10 --multiply 10 x 10 to get 100 and whatever you do to the denomemator ( the bottom number) you must do to the topp so 5 x 10 = 50 so now your fraction is 50/100 and your percent is 50%
It is: 0.5*100 = 50%
I would say that the easiest way is with proportions. Say you need to figure what percent of 10 is 5. 5 x _ = _ 10 100 10x=500 ______ 10 10 x= 50 what is 50% of 10 x 50 __ = __ 10 100 100x=500 ________ 100 100 x=5 5 is 50% of what 5 50 _ = __ x 100 50x=500 ________ 50 50 x=10
Percents ca n be co nverted to decimals a nd fractio ns. Example: 50% = 0.5 = 50/100 or 1/2
