Answer:

7/50 = 14%


Explanation:

Step 1: Top dawg in the house (the numerator becomes the dividend)

So instead of putting 50÷7 into the calculator, you would do 7÷50, which equals 0.14.


Step 2: Turn your decimal to a fraction.

Your decimal is 0.14. The last number of this decimal is in the HUNDREDTHS place. Therefore, you should MULTIPLY BY 100, or MOVE YOUR decimal two places to the RIGHT, which is 14.


All in all, 7/50 = 14%
