What is a percent? • A percent is a ratio…how many times out of a hundered 45 percent means 45 out of 100 possible times! 45 = 45 % 100
Percents to Fractions Conversion 1
Percentages can be written as a fraction by simply placing them over 100!
30 % 40 % 12 % 99 % 101 % 3/10 2/5 3/25 99/100 1 1/100 Write these percents as fractions. Be sure to simplify
Dude… That was easy
Percents to Decimals Conversion 2
Steps • Since I can put all percents over a hundred then all I need to do is write the equivalent decimal. • Move your decimal place over to the LEFT twice! 20 = 0.20 20 % = 100
12 % 8 % 75 % 48 % 120 % 0.12 0.08 0.75 0.48 1.20 You try…Percent to Decimal

Group Discussion • How would you convert each fraction to a percent? • Which fraction is easier to convert and why? 5/25 vs. 2/7
Setting it up Set up a ratio!!!
What percent is 5/40? 40 · P = 5 · 100 40P = 500 5 P = 500 = 12.5 % 40 100 40
4/100 2/5 3/4 2/3 2 1/2 4 % 40 % 75 % 66.6 % 250 % Your turn…
Decimals to Fractions Conversion 4
Steps • Whatever place value the fraction ends in is your DENOMINATOR • Make sure to simplify! • From here you can go easily into PERCENTS!!!! Why is that?
43 43 % 0.43 = = 100 10P = 300 3 P 0.3 = = 300 10 100 10 P = 30 %
Summary • When you make a decimal a percent you can really move the decimal _______ places to the ___________. • When you make a fraction a percent you want to make an equivalent fraction that has a denominator of _____________________.
