Enter a percentage to convert it into fraction form.
Converting a percentage to a fraction is straightforward. You just need to express the percentage as a fraction with 100 as the denominator, then simplify the fraction. Here are the steps:
For example, \(75\%\) can be written as \(\frac{75}{100}\).
Use the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and denominator to reduce the fraction to its simplest form. For example, \(\frac{75}{100}\) can be simplified to \(\frac{3}{4}\).
With these two simple steps, you can convert any percentage into a fraction!
Solution:
1. Remove the percent symbol:
\( 40\% = \frac{40}{100}\)
2. Simplify the fraction:
The GCD of 40 and 100 is 20, so we simplify:
\( \frac{40}{100} = \frac{2}{5} \)
Result: \(40\%\) as a fraction is \(\frac{2}{5}\)
Solution:
1. Remove the percent symbol:
\(125\% = \frac{125}{100}\)
2. Simplify the fraction:
The GCD of 125 and 100 is 25, so we simplify:
\( \frac{125}{100} = \frac{5}{4} \)
Result: \(125\%\) as a fraction is \(\frac{5}{4}\)
Solution:
1. Remove the percent symbol:
\(0.5\% = \frac{0.5}{100}\)
To make the conversion easier, multiply the numerator by 1000 to get \(\frac{5}{1000}\).
2. Simplify the fraction:
The GCD of 5 and 1000 is 5, so we simplify:
\( \frac{5}{1000} = \frac{1}{200} \)
Result: \(0.5\%\) as a fraction is \(\frac{1}{200}\)
