Answer 10

Okay. Bahrom's right. If you know how to do the long division, then you can use a calculator. Make it a decimal and them multiply by 100. And that's all there is to it.

Answer 11

*then

Answer 12

two more please....

Answer 13

Okay. You try the problem and tell me what your answer is. I'll tell you if it's right.

Answer 14

ok problem 7/16 as a percent

Answer 15

Okay. Divide the top by the bottom with your calculator. 7 divided by 16.

Whatever number you get, multiply it by 100. Now it's a percent.

Answer 16

43.75%

Answer 17

Yup!

Answer 18

yay!!!

Answer 19

Now let's work backwards...

Answer 20

back words?

Answer 21

If you have a percent and need to convert it to a decimal, you just DIVIDE it by 100.

If you have a percent and need to convert it to a fraction, for example: 43%,
Just re-write it as

43/100 and you're done.

Or if you have 524%, you still divide it by 100.

524/100 = and then you can reduce it to its lowest common denominator.

Answer 22

ohhhhh so what if its a number that goes on forever like 11/12 which equals .916666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666etc.

Answer 23

Well then you can state that. You can say 11/12 = (the squiggly equals, not the straight one) .91667

Answer 24

\[\approx\]

Answer 25

One last thing... if you have 54.4% and want to convert it to a fraction, first re-write it as:

54.4/100

Now, multiply the top and bottom by 10

544/1000

and now you can reduce it. That will be your fraction.

Answer 26

Yup, that the squiggly equals!

Answer 27

*that's ... I type too fast.

Answer 28

Here's a harder one. If you have 5.4643%, how do you make it as a fraction?

Step 1:

5.4643/100

Step 2:

Move the decimal point for both the number on top and on bottom 4 places to the right.

54643/1000000

So however many numbers you have that are on the right side of the decimal, that's how many places you have to move the decimal point (to the right) for both the numerator and denominator.

Answer 29

lol aand thx so much!

Answer 30

Yeah my explanations are overkill lol.
