= 2%
= 0.02
= 2/100
= 1/50

SO, 2% = 1/50

Hope I helped:P

Changing percent to fraction is an easy thing.
Here is how:
1. Simply put the given number over 100. (Let us have 2%). Drop the percent sign.
2% becomes 2
100
2. Reduce the fraction into its lowest term.
In reducing its lowest term, we should find their GCF first as their divisor.
2 = 1, 2
100 = 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 100
Their Greatest Common Factor (GCF) is 2.
3. Divide evenly.
2
÷ 2 = 1
100 2 50

So, 2% is 1/50 when changed into fraction.
