Hi there!

To convert a fraction to a percentage you need to first convert the fraction to a decimal number. To convert a fraction to a decimal number you need to treat the fraction like a division problem.


(1)/(3) as a division problem would be 1 divided by 3, which is:

1 ÷ 3 = 0.3333333...

Now to covert a decimal to a percent all you do is move the decimal point over to the hundreds place, so it will look like this:

33.3

I will be rounded down because it is less then 5. Now just add a percent sign on the end and that is your answer! I should look like this:

33.3%
