Question

Write 2.25% as fraction to the simplest form

Answer 1

2.25% can also be written as 0.0225 if we divide 2.25% by 100% and we eliminate the percentages:

To make the decimal 0.0225 a fraction, we have to multiply by a number in which the decimal will be an integer:

`(0.0225)/(1)*(10000)/(10000)=(225)/(10000)`

Simplifying the fraction obtained:

`(225)/(10000)=(9)/(400)`

Answer:

`(9)/(400)`
