To write 950% as a fraction, you start by recognizing that percent means "per hundred." Therefore, 950% can be expressed as:
\[ 950% = \frac{950}{100} \]
Next, you can simplify this fraction. Both the numerator and the denominator can be divided by 50:
\[ \frac{950 \div 50}{100 \div 50} = \frac{19}{2} \]
Now, to express \(\frac{19}{2}\) as a mixed number, you divide 19 by 2:
\[ 19 \div 2 = 9 \quad \text{(whole number)} \] \[ \text{Remainder: } 19 - (2 \cdot 9) = 1 \]
So, you can express \(\frac{19}{2}\) as the mixed number:
\[ 9 \frac{1}{2} \]
In summary, 950% can be expressed as:
- A fraction: \(\frac{19}{2}\)
- A mixed number: \(9 \frac{1}{2}\)
- A whole number: \(9\) (when just considering the whole part of the mixed number).
