To convert a percentage to a fraction, follow these steps:
Step 1: Convert the percentage to a decimal:
To convert 8 2/3% to a decimal, divide the given percentage by 100.
8 2/3% = 8\frac{2}{3}\% = \frac{8}{1} \times \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{1}{100}
To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators (top numbers) and the denominators (bottom numbers).
\frac{8}{1} \times \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{1}{100} = \frac{8 \times 2 \times 1}{1 \times 3 \times 100}
Simplifying the numerator and denominator:
\frac{8 \times 2 \times 1}{1 \times 3 \times 100} = \frac{16}{3 \times 100}
Step 2: Simplify the fraction, if possible:
In this case, the fraction cannot be simplified further.
So, 8 2/3% can be written as a fraction:
8 2/3% = \frac{16}{3 \times 100}
To separate the numerator and denominator, you can use the times symbol (×) instead of a fraction bar.
Therefore, 8 2/3% = \frac{16}{300}
