Explain and demonstrate how to change start fraction 4 over 20 end fraction into a percent?
PLZ help!
4/20 = percent / 100
4*5 / 20*5 = percent / 100
20/100 = percent / 100
To change a fraction into a percentage, you can follow these steps:
Step 1: Divide the numerator (the top number) by the denominator (the bottom number) of the fraction.
In this case, you would divide 4 by 20:
4 ÷ 20 = 0.2
Step 2: Multiply the result from Step 1 by 100 to convert it into a percentage.
Since 0.2 is the decimal representation of the fraction, you multiply it by 100:
0.2 × 100 = 20
So, the fraction 4/20 can be expressed as 20%.
