Before you ever start to work on a problem with a percent in it, stop and
think what 'percent' means, and change the percent to a number that you
can do arithmetic with.
'Percent' means 'hundredth'. To change a percent to a real number, either divide
it by 100, or move the decimal point two places to the left. (Same thing.)
37 percent means 0.37
50 percent means 0.50
84 percent means 0.84
20.2 percent means 0.202 .

You turn a fraction into a decimal by dividing the top number by the bottom. And you turn a decimal into a percent by multiplying the decimal by 100.
To turn a fraction into a percent, you must convert the fraction into a decimal. Then, convert the decimal into a percent. Hereβs how: Example: 4/9 as a percent is 44.4% Solution: 1.) Convert the fraction to a decimal by dividing the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number). 4 divided by 9 = 0.4444 2.) Convert the decimal to a percent by moving the decimal point to the right 2 times, or by multiplying by a hundred 0.4444 x 100 = 44.44 So... 4/9 as a percentage is 44.44%

To convert a fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator by the denominator. If you want to convert a decimal to a percent, multiply it by 100. If you want to make a percent a fraction, just put it over 100 and then simplify. To change a fraction to a percent, divide the fraction and then multiply it by 100.
Expressed as a decimal fraction, 120 percent is equal to 1.2. In other words, to find 120 percent of a number requires you to multiply the number by 1.2. For example, finding 120 percent of 500 is equivalent to multiplying 500 x 1.2 = 600.
In decimal form, 90% is .90. This is because when converting a decimal into a percent, you move the decimal point 2 places to the right, which is the same as multiplying that decimal by 100. You multiply it by 100 because you are converting that decimal into a fraction that will represent a percentage of a full 100%.
