by dividing it by hundred
which is done by moving the decimal point two places to the left.
So if you have say 28% then this becomes 0.28 and 28.6% becomes 0.286.
you divide the numerator by the denominator
long division then move the decimal point
You should be familiar with long division involving decimals
To work this out, you'll need a calculator. Divide 779 by 13 = 0.0166880616 This is the answer as a decimal. To turn this into a percentage, multiply it by 100: 0.166880616 x 100 = 16.6880616%, or 16.7% to 1d.p. (decimal place).
Punch in 5 divided by 9 in your calculator.
The only way, without a calculator, that I know of is long division.
you divide the numerator by the denominator
long division then move the decimal point
Why do you need a calculator?

That is impossible
By using a calculator:)
numerator (top) divided by the denominator (bottom)
Punch in 5 divided by 9 in your calculator.
5% = 0.05
That function depends on the calculator's capabilites. Some calculators do not show fractions. They only represent fractions as a decimal value (e.g. 50% is represented in the calculator as .5). If your calculator has a fraction function, you can enter 50% then press the fraction button & it will display 1/2 (which is the lowest fraction for 50%).
