Example Question #9 : How To Find A Fraction From A Percentage

What is $58.4\%$ as a fraction?

Possible Answers:

$\frac{29}{50}$

$\frac{73}{125}$

$\frac{583}{1000}$

$\frac{4}{5}$

Correct answer:

$\frac{73}{125}$

Explanation:

Put the number over 100 and drop the percent sign.

$58.4\%=\frac{58.4}{100}$

Multiply the numerator and denominator by to get rid of the decimal.

$\frac{58.4\times10}{100\times10}=\frac{584}{1000}$

Finally, reduce the fraction to get it in simplest form.

$\frac{584}{1000}=\frac{73}{125}$

Possible Answers:

$\frac{10}{23}$

$\frac{3}{4}$

$\frac{17}{25}$

$\frac{57}{94}$

$3\cdot 20=60$

Now convert each fraction into an equivalent fraction with the new, common denominator.

$\frac{1\cdot 20}{3\cdot 20}+\frac{9\cdot 3}{20\cdot 3} =\frac{20}{60}+\frac{27}{60}=\frac{47}{60}$

Set up a mathematical equation such that the percentage of the number is divided by 100. Solve for the unknown value.

$\left(\frac{x}{100}\right)(97)=4$

$x=4\left(\frac{100}{97}\right)=\frac{400}{97}= 4.1237$

The correct answer is $4.12\%$ .
