Ayanna Stevenson · Answer 1

Percent means parts out of 100 so one way to do it is to divide the fraction exg

3/4=0.75/1

we want x/100 so multiply both top and bottom by 100

75/100=75%

so just divide the fraction then mulitply by 100

or if possible, convert the bottom number to 100

Emma Weiss · Answer 2

Divide the denominator into the numerator and multiply the answer by 100 1/5=.20 X 100 = 20%
