1/8 can be thought of as 1 divided by 8. Think of the fraction bar as a division symbol in which you divide the numerator by the denominator.
\n" ); document.write( "1/8 = 0.125
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Example: 8/1 = 8 divided by 1 = 8
\n" ); document.write( "Example: 3/36 = 3 divided by 36 = .08333
\n" ); document.write( "Example: 36/3 = 36 divided by 3 = 12
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Now to change any of these decimals into a percentage, just multiply by 100%.
\n" ); document.write( "1/8 = 0.125 X 100% = 12.5%
\n" ); document.write( "3/36 = .0833 x 100% = 8.33%
\n" ); document.write( "36/3 = 12 x 100% =1200%\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
