Question

How do you find the percent of a fraction?
like 25% of 3/4?

Answer 1

The answer is 1/4 I hope this helps :)

Answer 2

3/16

Explanation:

25% of 3/4 is found by first rewriting 25% as the decimal fraction 0.25 and second by mult. 3/4 by this 0.25: 0.25(3/4) = 0.75/4 = (3/4)(4) = 3/16

Optionally, we could work solely with proper fractions: mult. 3/4 by 1/4, obtaining 3/16.
