What is a percentage?

A percentage is a ratio or a number expressed in the form of a fraction of 100. Percentages are often used to express a part of a total.

If we know that percentages are fractions of 100, we can convert these percentages:

• 40% =
  `(40)/(100)`

• 32% =
  `(32)/(100)`

• 15% =
  `(15)/(100)`

• 37% =
  `(37)/(100)`

• 96% =
  `(96)/(100)`

Simplifying these fractions:

• 
  `(40)/(100) = (2)/(5)`

• 
  `(32)/(100) = (8)/(25)`

• 
  `(15)/(100)=`
  `(3)/(20)`

• 
  `(37)/(100)=(37)/(100)`

• 
  `(96)/(100) =(24)/(25)`

Therefore, the percentages as simplified fractions are listed above.
