Hello There!


(4)/(50) as a percentage is 8%

You can first reduce this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 4 and 50 using 2.

4 ÷ 2 ≈ 2

50 ÷ 2 ≈ 25

We now have a fraction
(2)/(25)

We now divide 2 by 25 and we get a quotient of 0.08

Finally we multiply 0.08 by 100 and we get 8 so 4/50 as a percentage is 8%
