Percent means 100. That is important because when you want to convert from percents to ratio fractions you just drop the percent sign and place the number over 100. For example:
100 % as a ratio fraction = 100/100 = 1
47 % as a ratio fraction = 47/100
Try these 87 % =
37 % =
365 % = answer
There are also problems such as 47 1/2 % The procedure does not change.
47 1/2 However the numerator 47 1/2 can be divided by the denominator 100.
100 47 1/2 ÷ 100 changes to 95/2 ÷ 100/1. We invert the divisor and
proceed as in multiplication. 95/2 x 1/100 multiply the numerators
and then multiply the denominators. So our answer is 95/200 which reduces
19/40 when both numerator and denominator are divided by 5
Try these examples: 1) 23 1/3%
Try this one: 11/5 % answer return
