Final answer:

To convert 122% to a fraction, divide by 100 and simplify. The fraction is 61/50, which can be written as the mixed number 1 11/50.


Step-by-step explanation:

To convert a percent to a fraction, divide the percent by 100 and simplify if possible. In the given question, 122% can be written as 122/100. To simplify this fraction, divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD). The GCD of 122 and 100 is 2. Therefore, the simplified fraction is 61/50.

To write this fraction as a mixed number, divide the numerator (61) by the denominator (50). The quotient is the whole number part, and the remainder is the numerator of the fractional part. So, 61/50 as a mixed number is 1 and 11/50.
