You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hello!
I know that percentage is hard because you need a lot of computing, but if you are hard working this will be easy for you.
Okay, let's start with a fraction.
to convert the fraction in to percent, all you need to do is divide the numerator by the denominator. After that multiply it by 100 then put the percent sign.
Example:
Turn 1/4 to percent.
First divide the numerator(1) by the denominator(4), you will get 0.25 as your answer. After that multiply the answer(0.25) by 100, the answer is 25.Then now you will just put a percent sign. the answer is 25%.
Is that clear?
Now I'll show you how to convert decimal to percent.
To convert decimal to percent, all you need to do is multiply it by 100 then put the percent sign.
Example:
turn 0.83 to percent.
First multiply it by 100. the answer is 85, now just put the percent sign. The final answer is 85%.
Is this clear?
If you have any questions just ask.
Good Luck! I hope I helped you.
