Divide the denominator by 1 (decimal) or 100 (percent) and X by the numerator.

Again (as I have encouraged most people on this website), I urge you to spend a lot of time working on mental maths and general logical capabilities. Spend time on it while you're young and you'll be a genius when you're older - 'natural intelligence' is commonly determined by the person's psychological perseverance - and that doesn't mean working hard endlessly, more specifically loving yourself in a manner that you strive to make yourself more intelligent

A fraction means division. The fraction " A/ B " means " 'A' divided by 'B' ".

To convert a fraction to a decimal, perform the division .... divide the numerator
by the denominator. The quotient you get is the decimal form of the fraction.

To convert the decimal to percent, multiply it by 100 . (That's the same as
just moving the decimal point 2 places to the right from where it is.)
