This is how. Lets say the percent is 35%, then you take that 35% and use it as the top number of the fraction.
35/?
Now you still need the bottom number. All you do is put 100.
35/100
Then you simplify and it should be 7/20.
So really it is the percent that you have over 100, then you simplify.

The above is a correct answer if you are given the percent. However, the question is about when you are given the fraction!
Convert the fraction to a decimal by the method of long division and then multiply by 100.
For example,
3/7 = 0.42857 (approx)
Then, multiplication by 100 gives 42.857% approx.
To change a fraction into percent: - Perform the division indicated by the fraction. - Multiply the quotient by 100.
Percent literally means divide by one hundred. So divide the number by 100 and then bring that fraction to lowest terms.
Do the division. 27/48 = 27 divided by 48 = 0.5625
For percent, you move the decimal spot two places and you will get the percent. e.g (25.25=2525%) For fraction, you could create any fraction you want as long as the value of the fraction is equal to 25.25. e.g.(50.5/2) (5.05/.2)
An infinite number! To create an equivalent fraction the numerator and denominator can be multiplied by any number; one such group of numbers that can be used to create a group of equivalent factions is the counting numbers: {1, 2, 3, 4, ...} - multiply the numerator and denominator of the original fraction by 2, then 3, then 4, etc. This group is infinite in size, therefore there are an infinite number of equivalent fractions that can be written for any given fraction.

Multiply the decimal by 100 as for example 0.75 = 75%
you take the decimal and change it into a percent by moving the decimal 2 times to the rightDivide by 10034% = 0.34
Do the division. 27/48 = 27 divided by 48 = 0.5625
Most times, you can put a percent over 100 to create a fraction. 37% = 37/100
Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same integer.

place the decimal number over its place value. For example, in 0.6, the six is in the tenths place, so we place 6 over 10 to create the equivalent fraction, 6/10. If needed, simplify the fraction.
Lets say the percent is 20% You know this is 20 over 100= 20/100 20/100= 10/50 10/50=1/5 to check you perform the operation 1 decided by 5 is 0.20 and 20%=0.20
No. The reason you can multiply a fraction by (x/x) to find an equivalent fraction is because for almost any x, (x/x) = 1. This is not the case for zero. Zero divided by zero does NOT equal 1, so multiplying the fraction by a value not equal to 1 will create a different fraction.
