Answer 1

Which fraction is equivalent to 12%? A. 3.\25 B.1\8 C, 12\25 D.48.25

Answer 2

Do you know how to convert 12% into a fraction?

Answer 3

No

Answer 4

Alright. To convert any percent into a fraction, you put it over 100. The term percent means "per-100", so 12% would become \(\frac{ 12 }{ 100 }\). Can you reduce from there?

Answer 5

Is It C?

Answer 6

To reduce it, you want to find the biggest factor of each number that you can pull out and cancel them. Can you find the greatest common factor of 12 and 100?

Answer 7

4?

Answer 8

Right, so if you pull a 4 out of both 12 and 100, what is your fraction?

Answer 9

1\8?

Answer 10

Just think about 12 and 100 separately. What is 12/4 equal to and what is 100/4 equal to?

Answer 11

what do you need help with?

Answer 12

Just divide out the fraction then multiply it by 100, super simple stuff...
3/25=.12 .12 *100=12
