Using equivalent, fractions, decimals and percents, how can you show a fraction or a decimal as a percent?

1 answer

To show a fraction as a percent, you can convert the fraction to a decimal and then multiply the decimal by 100. For example, if we have the fraction 3/4, we can divide 3 by 4 to get the decimal 0.75. Then, multiplying 0.75 by 100, we find that 3/4 is equivalent to 75%.

To show a decimal as a percent, you can multiply the decimal by 100. For example, if we have the decimal 0.35, multiplying it by 100 gives us 35%.

Therefore, to convert a fraction or a decimal into a percent, multiply the value by 100.
