To write a fraction as a percent, first remember that a percent is a ratio of a number to 100. If we want to write 5/8 as a percent, we need to find a fraction equivalent to 5/8 that has a 100 in the denominator. We can do this by setting up a proportion.

\frac{5}{8} = \frac{n}{100}

<h3 /><h3>8n = 500</h3><h3>÷8     ÷8</h3><h3>    n = 62.5%</h3><h3>Therefore, 5/8 is equal to 62.5%.</h3><h3 />

To write a fraction as a decimal, we can simply divide the numerator by the denominator.

5 ÷ 8 = 0.625

Therefore, 5/8 is equal to 0.625.

A number when divided by 780 gives remainder 38 .What
baherus [9]

Given:

A number when divided by 780 gives remainder 38.

To find:

The reminder that would be obtained by dividing same number by 26.

Solution:

According to Euclis' division algorithm,

a=bq+r                ...(i)

Where, q is quotient and 0\leq r is the remainder.

It is given that a number when divided by 780 gives remainder 38.

Substituting b=780,\ r=38 in (i), we get

a=(780)q+38

So, given number is in the form of 780q+38, where q is an integer.

On dividing 780q+38 by 26, we get

\dfrac{780q+38}{26}=\dfrac{780q}{26}+\dfrac{38}{26}

\dfrac{780q+38}{26}=30q+\dfrac{26+12}{26}

\dfrac{780q+38}{26}=30q+\dfrac{26}{26}+\dfrac{12}{26}

\dfrac{780q+38}{26}=30q+1+\dfrac{12}{26}

Since q is an integer, therefore (30q+1) is also an integer but \dfrac{12}{26} is not an integer. Here 26 is divisor and 12 is remainder.

Therefore, the required remainder is 12.
