Please help!
Thanks!
5 2/5 = 5 + 2/5 = 500% + 40% = 540%
Divide the fraction's numerator by its denominator. Multiply the decimal by 100 to get the percent.
2/5 = ?
Thank you Ms. Sue!!!
I got 40% but that is not one of the choices what did I do wrong??
thx
To write a fraction as a percent, you would first convert the fraction to a decimal by dividing the numerator (the top number) by the denominator (the bottom number).
For the fraction 5 2/5, we can calculate it as follows:
5 2/5 = (5*5 + 2)/5 = 27/5 ≈ 5.4
Now, to convert the decimal 5.4 to a percent, we multiply it by 100 and add the percent symbol (%):
5.4 * 100 = 540
Therefore, the correct answer is A. 540%
