Converting fractions, decimals, and percents

When we talk, we often use different words to express the same thing. For example, we could describe the same car as tiny or little or small. All of these words mean the car is not big. Fractions, decimals, and percents are like the words tiny, little, and small. They're all just different ways of expressing parts of a whole.

screenshot of 1/2

In this image, each measuring cup has the same amount of juice in it. But we've expressed this amount in three ways: as a fraction, as a percent, and as a decimal. Since they're expressing the same amount, we know that 1/2, 50%, and 0.5 are equal to each other. Any time we see 1/2, we'll know it can also mean 50% or 0.5.

Sometimes it's useful to convert one kind of number into another. For example, it's much easier to add 1/4 and 0.5 if you turn 0.5 into a fraction. Learning how to convert fractions, decimals, and percents will also help you as you learn more advanced math.

Fractions and decimals

Every fraction can also be written as a decimal, and vice versa. You may not do this very often, but converting decimals and fractions can help you in math. For example, it's easier to subtract 1/6 from 0.52 if you turn 1/6 into a decimal first.

Converting a fraction into a decimal

Let's convert a fraction into a decimal. We'll be using a math skill you've already learned: long division. To refresh your memory on this skill, you can review our Long Division lesson.

Anna enjoys dinner at a restaurant in Washington DC where the sales tax on meals is 5%. She leave a 20% tip on the price of her
Maru [420]

Answer:

52.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Discussion

Suppose the meal starts out as x.

She pays 5% of x as a sales tax

So that brings the total up to 100% + 5% = 105%

Before paying, she pays 20% on x as her tip. The tax does not touch the tip.

So that brings the total up to 100% + 5% + 20% = 125% of this is based on x, the cost of the meal.

So 125% of x = 65.50                          change the % to a fraction

125/100 * x = 65.50                             Multiply both sides by 100/125  

125/100 * 100/125x = 100/125 * 65.50

x = 100/125 * 65.50                             Multiply by 100

x = 6550 / 125                                     Divide by 125

Check

Tax = 5% * 52.40 = 5/100 * 52.40 = 2.62

Tip = 20%*52.40 = 20/100 * 52.40=10.48

Meal =                                               52.40

Total                                                  65.50  Just as it should
