divide that by 100 then simplify..

$$\implies \frac{1}{20}$$

..i need to go now...i hope @Shane_B can explain further..but just so you know..all i did was improper fractions

shane_b · Answer

To convert a % to a fraction, you just divide the % by 100.  That's what @lgbasallote is saying.  You have 56 1/4 %....make that an improper fraction if you need to and then divide that by 100:$$\frac{\frac{225}{4}}{100}=?$$
