Fractions and Percentages

A percentage is simply a fraction with a denominator of 100. To convert any fraction to a percentage, you divide the numerator by the denominator and then multiply the result by 100. This tells you how many parts out of 100 the fraction represents.

Pro Tips

Move the Decimal: Dividing numerator by denominator gives you a decimal. To make it a percent, move the decimal point two places to the right.
Beyond 100%: If the numerator is larger than the denominator, the percentage will be greater than 100% (e.g., 5/4 = 125%).
Exact Values: 1/1 = 100%, 1/2 = 50%, 1/4 = 25%, and 1/10 = 10%.

Fun Facts

"The symbol '%' is believed to have evolved from a symbol meaning 'per horizontal line' in Italian manuscripts."
"Banks use percentages to calculate interest, and shops use them for discounts."
"The word 'percent' comes from the Latin 'per centum', meaning 'by the hundred'."

Formula: Percentage = (Numerator / Denominator) × 100%
