6/25 as a percentage is 24%.

Commonly, to change a fraction into its percentage form, you would multiply the numerator (the top number) and the denominator (the bottom number) by 100, which is a numerical number that is used.

So, in this case, we would divide:

6/25 × 100

After calculating that, you should know that it equals 24. That should be our answer to solving 6/25 as a percentage.

Also, if you did not know how to simplify the problem:


(6)/(25) * 100 \\ \\ (600)/(25) = 24 \\ \\

You basically just focus on the numerator being multiplied by the whole number (which is 100), so 6 multiplied by 100 equals 600, and that is the new numerator. The next step would to be to simplify it by solving what multiples by 25 to get the result of 600. 24 times 25 equals 600...so 24 is the answer.
