How
can
we
find
mulLple

representaLons
of
raLonal
numbers?

Standard:

Conver,ng
from
Percents
to
Frac,ons

What
does
“percent”
mean?



“Percent”
means
“out
of
a
hundred”.
You
can
use
this
to
convert
any

percent
to
a
fracLon.



50%
=
50/100


SomeLmes,
 fracLons
 can
 be
 reduced
 to
 a
 lower
 numerator
 and


denominator
and,
if
they
can,
they
should
be.
For
example:



50/100
=
5/10
=
½


How?
 By
 dividing
 both
 numerator
 and
 denominator
 by
 the
 same

number,
 unLl
 they
 can
 no
 longer
 be
 divided
 by
 the
 same
 number.
 In

this
case,
we
divide
by
10
and
then
by
5
and
then
have
to
stop
there.



 Convert
the
following
percents
to
fracLons.



1.  90%

2.  40%

3.  60%

4.  85%

5.  24%

6.  38%


7.  22.5%


 Convert
the
following
percents
to
fracLons.



1.  90%
=
90/100
=
9/10

2.  40%
=
40/100
=
4/10
=
2/5

3.  60%
=
60/100
=
6/10
=
3/5


4.  85%
=
85/100
=
17/20


5.  24%
=
24/100
=
12/50
=
6/25


6.  38%
=
38/100
=
19/50

7.  22.5%
=
9/40



Wait
a
minute…
How does 22.5% equal 9/40?


 What
if
the
percent
involves
a
decimal
value?



If
 we
 have
 22.5%,
 how
 can
 we
 find
 an
 equivalent
 fracLon
 that

makes
sense?



Well…
 22.5/100
 doesn’t
 look
 right!
 With
 this,
 we
 need
 to

mulLply
both
numerator
and
denominator
by
the
same
number

to
find
an
equivalent
fracLon,
where
the
numerator
becomes
a

whole
number.


For
example,
22.5/100
×
2/2
=
45/200.
How
can
reduce
this?



(45
÷
5)/(200
÷
5)
=
9/40

 Convert
the
following
percents
to

1.  45.5%


2.  31.5%

3.  21.25%

5.  7.1%

Conver,ng
from
Frac,ons
to
Decimals

There
 are
 a
 couple
 of
 different
 approaches
 to
 consider,
 when

converLng
from
fracLons
to
decimals…



Firstly,
you
could
find
an
equivalent
fracLon
with
a
denominator

of
 100.
 For
 example,
 we
 know
 that
 4/25
 =
 16/100
 =
 0.16,

because
(4
×
4)/(25
×
4)
=
16/100;
we
mulLplied
both
numerator

and
denominator
by
the
same
factor
of
100
(which
is
4).



Or,
 if
 that
 can’t
 be
 done:
 for
 example,
 with
 5/8,
 8
 cannot
 so

easily
be
mulLplied
to
get
100.
In
this
case,
we
divide
to
find
the

quoLent:
5/8
=
5
÷
8


5
÷
8
=
0.625

 Convert
the
following
fracLons
to
decimals.



1.  7/8

2.  8/20

3.  5/40

4.  7/50

5.  5/7

6.  2/3

7.  1/6

 Convert
the
following
fracLons
to
decimals.



1.  7/8
=
0.875

2.  8/20
=
4/10
=
0.4


3.  5/40
=
1/8
=
0.125


4.  7/50
=
14/100
=
0.14


5.  5/7
=
0.71428571
(which
is
0.714
to
3.d.p.)


6.  2/3
=
0.666…
This
is
a
repea7ng
decimal.


7.  1/6
=
0.1666…
This
is
a
non‐termina7ng decimal!

Conver,ng
from
Frac,ons
to
Percents

There
are
a
few
ways
to
approach
this:



1.  Convert
 the
 fracLon
 to
 a
 decimal
 and
 find
 the
 percent

using
the
decimal.
For
example:




1/8
=
0.125
=
12.5%


2.  Look
to
see
whether
the
denominator
is
a
factor
of
100.

If
 so
 mulLply
 to
 find
 an
 equivalent
 fracLon
 with
 a

denominator
of
100.
For
example:




3/5
=
(3
×
20)/(5
×
20)
=
60/100
=
60%


Conver,ng
from
Frac,ons
to
Percents

3.  Find
 an
 equivalent
 fracLon,
 or
 reduce
 the
 fracLon,
 to

make
it
easier
on
yourself.
For
example:




27/36
=
(27
÷
9)/(36
÷
9)
=
¾
=
0.75
=
75%



9/72
=
(9
÷
9)/(72
÷
9)
=
1/8
=
0.125
=
12.5%



9/75
=
(9
÷
3)/(75
÷
3)
=
3/25



3/25
=
(3
×
4)/(25
×
4)
=
12/100
=
12%

Convert
the
following
fracLons
to
percents.



1.  5/8

2.  9/20

3.  35/40

4.  15/30

5.  2/7

6.  33/60

7.  8/12

Convert
the
following
fracLons
to
percents.



1.  5/8
=
0.625
=
62.5%


2.  9/20
=
45/100
=
45%


3.  35/40
=
7/8
=
0.875
=
87.5%


4.  15/30
=
½
=
0.5
=
50%


5.  2/7
=
0.28571429
≈
0.2857
=
28/57%


6.  33/60
=
11/20
=
55/100
=
55%


7.  8/12
=
2/3
=
0.666…
=
66.6…%
=
