The symbol for percent is %. 75 3 x 25 3 75% = = = 100 4 x 25 4 Converting a Percent to a Fraction 1. Express the percent as a fraction with the number over 100. 2. Reduce the fraction to lowest terms. Example 1 Express 88% as a fraction in lowest terms. 88 22 x 4 22 88% = = = 100 25 x 4 25 Example 2 1 Express 37 2 % as a fraction in lowest terms. 1 = 37.5 % = 37.5 37 2 % 100 37.5 x 10 375 = = 100 x 10 1,000 375 ÷ 125 3 = = 1000 ÷ 125 8 Example 3 1 Express 13 3 % as a fraction in lowest terms. 1 1 1 13 13 3 % = 3 = 13 3 ÷ 100 100 2 40 1 2 x = = 3 100 5 15 Example 17 Write 34% as a fraction. 50 Example 1 Write 29 % as a fraction. 3 22 75 Converting a Percent to a Decimal 1. Replace the percent sign with ÷ 100 (per hundred). 2. Move the decimal point two places to the left to divide by 100. Example 4 Express 8% as a decimal. 8% = 8 ÷ 100 = 0.08 Example 5 1 Express 32 4 % as a decimal. 1 32 4 % = 32.25% = 32.25 ÷ 100 = 0.3225 Example 1 Write 17 % as a decimal. 2 0.175 Example 2 Write 8 % as a decimal. 3 0.086 Example 4 Write % as a decimal. 5 0.008 Converting a Decimal to a Percent 1. Multiply by 1 in the form 100%. 2. Move the decimal point two places to the right. Affix the percent symbol. Example 6 Express 2.4 as a percent. 2.4 = 2.4(100%) = 240% Example Write 0.19 as a percent. 19% Example Write 2.3 as a percent. 230% If the denominator of a fraction is 100, you can use the percent symbol instead of dividing by 100. 43 = 43% 100 4 5 Example 7 3 Express 20 as a percent. 3 = 3 x 5 = 15 20 20 x 5 100 15 = 15% 100 Example 8 7 Express 8 as a percent. Example 8 0.875 8 7.000 64 60 56 40 40 0 0.875 = 87.5% Example 9 5 Express 2 as a percent. 2.5 2 5.0 2.5 = 250% 4 10 10 0 Example 10 5 Express 12 as a percent. 0.41 8 2 12 5.00 0.41 12 = 0.41 3 4.8 2 20 = 41 3 % 12 8 Example 11 5 Use a proportion to express 8 as a percent. Example 3 Write 4 as a percent. 75% Example 5 Write 2 as a percent. 250% Example 5 Write 9 as a percent. 5 55 9 % = 55.5%
