How To Convert Percent To Fraction By Hand
One of the things that many students need to know about math is that you don’t always have a calculator near them. So, you need to know how to make the calculations by hand when you need to. So, even though you can simply use our percent to fraction calculator, our advice is to learn how to make this conversion by hand as well.
So, here are all the steps you need to take in order to convert percent into fraction by hand:
Step #1: Divide the percentage by 100 to get a decimal number.
Step #2: Use that number as the numerator (top) of a fraction. Put a 1 in the denominator (bottom) of the fraction.
Step #3: Convert the decimal to a whole number: Count how many places are to the right of the decimal. If you have x decimal places then multiply numerator and denominator by 10x.
Step #4: Reduce the fraction: Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of the numerator and denominator and reduce the fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCF.
Step #5: Simplify the remaining fraction to a mixed number fraction if possible.
