What is 88.2% when converted to a fraction out of twelve? (Like 3/12, 5/12 etc)

to convert fractions to percentages, we use this formula: x/y = z/100

where x is the fraction numerator, y is the fraction denominator, and z is the percentage

so plug the numbers in: x/12 = 88.2/100

cross multiply: 100x = 1058.4

divide each side by 100: x = 10.584

88.2% = 10.584/12
