Question

Convert 746% to a mixed number

Answer 1

Answer: 373/50

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: convert to a fraction

746% = 746 ÷ 100 = 7.46

7.46 = 373/50

Step 2: Write the number as a fraction of one: 7.46 = 746/100

Step 3: use a common divisor of 2 to reduce the numbers, we have

(746÷2)= 373

(100÷2)=50

when reduced to the simplest form= 373/50

Therefore, 746/ 100 = 373/50 when expressed as a mixed number.

Answer 2

Answer: 373/50

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1) Since 746% is a percent, it is written over the denominator of 100. So first convert it to a fraction, which would be 746/100.

Step 2) Find the GCF (greatest common factor). In order to find the GCF start by writing all the factors of

100:

1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 100

Step 3) Now test every number there and see if any go into 746. Start at the highest number, which in this case is 100. (Example, ask yourself, “does 100 go into 746? No.” Then try with 50, and continue until you get to a number that goes into 746 evenly.)

Step 4) The GCF from the previous step is 2. So now divide 746 by 2 (answer is 373) and 100 by 2 (answer is 50).

Step 5) Now put 373/50 and that’s your answer! Congratulations you finished it!
