To convert a fraction to a percent, simply divide the numerator by the denominator and multiply the quotient (the result) by 100.

1.
(13)/(50)
Divide 13 by 50 to receive the quotient
13÷50=0.26
Multiply the quotient by 100 or simply move the decimal two places to the right.
0.26×100=26
Add the "percent" symbol to your answer. (%)
As a result, the percent form of
(13)/(50) is 26%

Similarly, all the fractions will follow the same procedure, in order for them to be converted to a percent. Simply add the percent symbol (%) after the result.

2.
(3)/(5) = 0.6 = 60%
3.
(3)/(20) = 0.15 = 15%
4.
(5)/(8) = 0.625 = 62.5%
5.
(45)/(90) = 0.5 = 50%
6.
(7)/(5) = 1.4 = 140%
7.
(19)/(25) = 0.76 = 76%

Percent means "out of 100" or "parts per 100". For cases where the numerator is larger than the denominator (improper fraction), such as 7/5, the result will be larger than 100% as well, as the total number of parts exceeds the parts available.
