Ratio is another form of a fraction, for instance: I have 1 apple to two Oranges, which can be expressed as 1:2 (ratio) or 1/2 (fraction) which basically mean the same thing. Percent (%) is when you actually DIVIDE and multiply that decimal by 100%. For instance, with the apple and oranges, 1/2 becomes 0.5. 0.5 x 100= 50%.
