take 124 and divide it by 100 and what do you get ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
1.24
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sure. Since its 124%, it simply means \[\left(\begin{matrix}124 \\ 100\end{matrix}\right)\] therefore in its lowest term, you just reduce it so that will be \[\left(\begin{matrix}31 \\ 25\end{matrix}\right)\] ...In order to arrive at that answer , you simply divide both the numerator and denominator by the lowest common factor, 4 so.... 124 divided by 4 is 31 and 100 divided by 4 is 25. There the answer is \[\left(\begin{matrix}31 \\ 25\end{matrix}\right)\]

wow, thanks!

I usually turn it into a decimal first then into a fraction. Not everybody does it that way

your welcome :)

oh yah i think it would be easyer for me if i just learned how to just turn a percent into a fraction
OpenStudy (anonymous):
whatever is easier for you is what you need to stick with :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yep any number with the % sign means over 100. Always remeber that.because its much easier that way :)
