In order to Write down the percent divided by 100 ==> percent/100
then In we check if the percent is not a whole number,if not then we need to multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number that comes after the decimal point. (For example, in case there is one number after the decimal point then we use 10, if there are two numbers then use 100 and so on ) lastly we Simplify reduce the percentage to the fraction
Step-by-step explanation:
<u></u>
<u>To convert a Percentange to a Fraction we need to follow the below mentioned steps:
</u>
1) Write down the percent divided by 100 ==> percent/100
2) In case percent is not a whole number, if not then we need to multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number that comes after the decimal point.
(For example, in case there is one number after the decimal point then we use 10, if there are two numbers then use 100 and so on )
3)Then we Simplify reduce the percentage to the fraction
For Example :<u>Convert 25% to fraction then</u>
1) 25% =25/100
2) Now in this case the percentage is a whole number so we go directly to step 3
3) <u>25/100=5/20= 1/4</u>
<u></u>
<u>25/100 is called a decimal fraction and 1/4 is called a common fraction</u>
<u></u>
<u>Now if we need to convert a Percentage into Decimal then:</u>
Let us consider the Percentage to be 25%
The easiest way to divide by 100 is to
1)we divide the number by 100, and remove the percentage sign.
==>25/100
2)Now we move the decimal point 2 places to the left of the percentage number ==>.25
<u>So the decimal form of the 25% is.25</u>
