2/10

To convert a percentage to a mixed number, follow these steps:

Step 1: Divide the percentage by 100 to convert it to a decimal. In this case, 217% divided by 100 equals 2.17.

Step 2: Take the decimal part (0.17) and convert it to a fraction by putting the decimal number over 1 (since we haven't added any zeros yet).

0.17/1

Step 3: Multiply the fraction by 100 to eliminate the decimal point. This is done by multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by the same number so the value remains the same. In this case, we multiply 0.17/1 by 100.

(0.17/1) * 100 = 17/1

Step 4: Simplify the fraction, if possible. In this case, 17/1 cannot be further simplified.

Step 5: Write the result as a mixed number. The whole number part is the whole number obtained from the decimal (2) and the fractional part is the simplified fraction.

The mixed number representation of 217% is 2 17/1.
