A percent is a number relative to 100. Therefore, we want the number 100 in the ratio. In order to do that, we need to multiply BOTH numbers in the ratio by a number so that the second number of the new ratio is equal to 100. The first number of the new ratio is the percent. For example: 4:5 = [4*20]:[5*20] = 80:100 = 80%
Seven ninths is equivalent to 0.77777777... when expressed as a decimal. In fraction form, it can also be written as 77/99 in its simplest form. This fraction represents a ratio of 77 equal parts out of a total of 99 equal parts.
Multiply both number by any non-zero number and you will get an equivalent ratio.
No. It is necessary to multiply.
