Understanding Percent to Fraction Conversion

A percentage is a way of expressing a number as a fraction of 100. The term "percent" means "per hundred". Therefore, converting a percentage to a fraction involves placing the percentage value over 100 and then simplifying the fraction to its lowest terms.

Example: Let's convert 75% to a fraction.

  1. Write the percentage as a fraction with 100 as the denominator: 75/100.
  2. Simplify the fraction by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and the denominator. The GCD of 75 and 100 is 25.
  3. Divide both the numerator and the denominator by the GCD: 75 ÷ 25 = 3 and 100 ÷ 25 = 4.
  4. The simplified fraction is 3/4.
