Question

How to covert a fraction into percentage?

(i) $\frac{3}{25}$

(iii)$\frac{4}{5}$

(iii) $\frac{3}{4}$

(iv)$\frac{2}{3}$

(v) $1$

Answer 1

We will follow the following steps for converting a fraction into a percentage:

Step
I: Obtain the fraction. Let the fraction is $\frac{x}{y}.$

Step II: Multiply the

fraction by 100 and write the percentage (%) symbol to find the required
percent. Therefore, $\frac{x}{y}=(\frac{x}{y}\times 100)$

1. Convert each of the following fractions as percentage:

(i) $\frac{3}{25}=\frac{3}{25}\times 100\%=12\%$

(ii) $\frac{4}{5}=\frac{4}{25}\times 100\%=80\%$

(iii) $\frac{3}{4}=\frac{3}{4}\times 100\%=75\%$

(iv) $\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2}{3}\times 100\%=\frac{200}{3}\%=66\frac{2}{3}\%$

(v) $1=\frac{1}{1}\times 100\%=100\%$

Note: 100 % = 1
