Express each fraction or mixed number as a percent

Five eighths two and four sevenths


Sagot :

So,

#1: [tex] \frac{5}{8} [/tex]

We know that [tex] \frac{1}{8} [/tex] = 0.125, or 12.5%.
Therefore, we just have to multiply 12.5% by 5 to get [tex] \frac{5}{8} [/tex]  in percent form.

12.5(5) = 62.5

[tex] \frac{5}{8} [/tex]  as a percent is 62.5%.


#2: [tex]2 \frac{4}{7} [/tex]

[tex]2 \frac{4}{7} = 200%[/tex] + [tex] \frac{4}{7} [/tex]

4/7 rounded to the nearest thousandth is 0.5714, or 57.14%.

200% + 57.14% = 257.14%
