Question

A woman at your company saves 10% of her salary.what fraction of her salary doe she save?

Answer 1

She saves 1/10 of her salary. That's the simplified version, it can also be written 10/100. Fractions, decimals, and percentages are all interchangeable.

Answer 2

The question is asking to convert a percentage to a fraction. To do this, you can  multiply by 1/100, and get rid of the percent sign. This looks like this. $\frac{10}{1} * \frac{1}{100} = \frac{10}{100}$. Now you can see that this is your fraction. Finally, you would need to simplify it, if you can, and we can in this case. To simplify it, if you divide the numerator by 10 and the denominator by 10, you can see we get 1/10. Therefore the woman saves 1/10 of her salary. Hope this helps.
