For a percentage over 100%, take the first digit (1 in 125%) (5 in 580%) and make it the whole number.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " 1 ____________________ 5\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2. Take the last two digits and make them the fractions (25/100 in 125%) (80/100 in 580%). \n" ); document.write( " 1 25/100 _____________ 5 80/100 \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3. Reduce the fractions (25/100 is 1/4) (80/100 is 4/5)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " 1 1/4 ____________ 5 4/5 \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
