The number above the line is called the numerator, while the number below the line is called the denominator. The fraction shows how many portions of the number there are, in relation to how many would make up the whole. For instance, in the fraction 44/50, we could say that the value is 44 portions, out of a possible 50 portions to make up the whole. For percentages, the difference is that we want to know how many portions there are if there are 100 portions possible. “Percent” means “per hundred”. For example, if we look at the percentage 25%, that means we have 25 portions of the possible 100 portions. Re-writing this in fraction form, we see 25/100. The first step in converting a fraction to a percentage is to adjust the fraction so that the denominator is 100. To do this, you first divide 100 by the denominator: 10050=2\frac{100}{50} = 250100=2 We can then adjust the whole fraction using this number, like so: 44∗250∗2=88100\frac{44*2}{50*2} = \frac{88}{100}50∗244∗2=10088 Reading this as a fraction, we can say that we have 88 portions of a possible 100 portions. Re-writing this as a percentage, we can see that 44/50 as a percentage is 88% A fraction consists of two numbers and the fraction bar:44/50The number above the fraction bar is the numerator: 44The number under the fraction bar is the denominator: 50To get the fraction's value, divide the numerator by the denominator:The value = 44 ÷ 50'Percent (%)' means 'out of one hundred':p% = p 'out of one hundred',p% = p/100 = p ÷ 100.1) Calculate the value of the fraction.2) Multiply this number by 100.3) Add the percent sign %44/50 =44 ÷ 50 =0.88100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 100% = 1Multiply a number by the fraction 100/100 |
