For instance 75% is equivalent to either 0.75 decimal number or 75⁄100 ≡ ¾ fraction numbers exactly. Such simple but very accurate tool can be truly handy e.g. when developing or decrypting (an advanced) baking formula, where it is common actually. In mathematics we use percentage numbers x% plus fractions and decimals. With them, the equally same or different mathematical values may be shown and, various pct calculations can be made. Sign percent % can be abbreviated with three letters pct. Use the table further below for the math conversion results.

Remember that a percent is really just a special way of expressing a fraction as a number out of 100 .

To convert a fraction to a percent, first divide the numerator by the denominator. Then multiply the decimal by 100 .

That is, the fraction 4 8 can be converted to decimal by dividing 4 by 8 . It can be converted to percent by multiplying the decimal by 100 .

4 ÷ 8 = 0.5 0.5 × 100 = 50

So, the fraction 4 8 is equivalent to 50 % .

Example 1:

Write 2 25 as a percent.

Since 25 is larger than 2 , in order to divide, we must add a decimal point and some zeroes after the 2 .  We may not know how many zeroes to add but it doesn't matter.  If we add too many we can erase the extras; if we don't add enough, we can add more.

So,

2 25 = 0.08 0.08 × 100 = 8

Therefore, the fraction 2 25 is equivalent to 8 % .

Look at the image below, it shows that the fraction 2 25 is same as 8 out of 100 , that is, 8 % .

Example 2:

Write 7 4 as a percent.

Divide 7 by 4 .

So,

7 4 = 1.75 1.75 × 100 = 175

Therefore, the fraction 7 4 is equivalent to 175 % .

Example 3:

Write 1 8 as a percent.

Divide 1 by .

So,

1 8 = 0.125 0.125 × 100 = 12.5

Therefore, the fraction 1 8 is equivalent to 12.5 % .

A percent is a ratio whose second term is 100. Percent means parts per hundred. The word comes from the Latin phrase per centum, which means per hundred. In mathematics, we use the symbol % for percent or the abbreviation pct. For example, 12% (read as 'twelve percent') is equal to 12/100, or 3/25, or 0.12. Percentages are used to express how large or small one quantity is relative to another quantity.
