First, get the mixed number into a decimal. 1
(1)/(2) can be also written as 1 +
(1)/(2). We know that
(1)/(2) equals to 0.5, so 1 + 0.5 equals 1.5.

Now convert the decimal into a percentage by moving the decimal point two places to the right and adding a % sign.

1.5 = 150%

So, 150% is the answer.
