To change a fraction to a percent, divide the numerator by the denominator and then multiply the result by:
A. 0.01
B. 0.1
C. 10
D. 100
d
Rationale: To change a fraction to a percent, divide the numerator by the denominator and then multiply the result by 100. (Then, add the percent symbol.) For example, to find the percentage that is equivalent to the fraction 3/12, first divide: 3 4 12, which equals 0.25. Multiply the result by 100. Thus so, 0.25 3 100 5 25. Then, add the percent sign. 25% is equivalent to 3/12.
