Meaning of Percentage

 A percent refers to a number of parts of something, relative to the whole or


100 parts, “parts per hundred.”
 Is a fraction. The denominator is 100; the numerator is the number before the %
symbol.

 E.g., 5% = 5/100.
Cont..

 Is a ratio: The numerator and denominator are separated by a colon.


For example, 5% = 5:100.

 Is a decimal: The numerator is taken to the hundredth part.


 For example, 5% = 0.05.

 Is written with the symbol %, which means 100.


Formula of % and How to calculate %

• The percentage can be found by dividing the value by the total value

and then multiplying the result by 100. The formula used to calculate

the percentage is: (value/total value)×100%.

• 888/1100*100 = 80.73%
Conversion of percentage to fraction

• To change a percent to a fraction: drop the % symbol, divide the number (new
numerator) by 100 (denominator), reduce, and change to a mixed number, if necessary.
• Change 20% to a fraction
 Drop the % symbol: 20% now becomes 20.
 This number (20) now becomes the fraction’s new numerator.
 Place this new numerator (20) over 100 (the denominator will always be
100).
 20/100 =
 20/100 Reduce the fraction to lowest terms = 1/5
Practice

• 15%

• 20%

• 1/3 %

• 60%

• 75%

• ½%
Conversation of fraction to percentage

• To change a fraction to a percent: multiply the fraction by 100 (change any mixed

number to an improper fraction before multiplying by 100), reduce, and add the %

symbol.

•½

• ½ *100 = 100/2 = 50 %
Conversation of fraction to percentage

• 1/5

•½

• 2/5

•¼

•4
Conversion of percentage to decimals

• To change a percent to a decimal: drop the % symbol (when you drop the % symbol
from the whole number, a decimal point takes the place of the symbol), divide the
remaining number by 100 by moving the decimal point two places to the left, and
add zeros if necessary
• 68%

• Decimal replaces the %. 68.0

• 68.0 = move the decimal 0.68.


Practice

• 15%

• 25%

• 59%

• 70%
Conversation of decimals to percentage

• To change a decimal to a percent: multiply the decimal by 100 and by moving the

decimal point two places to the right, and add the % symbol and zeros if needed;

• 0.50

• 0.50 * 100 = 50%


Practice

Convert in to percentage

• 3.19

• 1.61

• 0.25

• 0.60
Percentage one Number is of
another Number

• To determine what percentage one number is of another number: make a fraction using

the number following “what percent of” as the denominator, use the remaining

number as the numerator, change the fraction to a decimal, and then change the

decimal to a percent.
Cont.…

• What percent of 40 is 10?

• Convert to fraction 10/40 = 1/4

• Change to decimal ¼ = 0.25

• Change to a percent 0.25 = 25 %

• So, the percent of 40of 10 is 25%


Practice

• What percent of 4 is 1/2?

• What percent of 25 is 5?

• What percent of 180 is 60?

• What percent of 90 is 15?
