Answer 1

`\hookrightarrow\sf{ 25\% =(25)/(100)=\boxed{\bf (1)/(4) }} \\\hookrightarrow\sf{ 40\% =(40)/(100)=\boxed{\bf (2)/(5) }} \\\hookrightarrow \sf{16\%=(16)/(100)=\boxed{\bf(4)/(25)} } \\ \hookrightarrow\sf{150\%=(150)/(100)=\boxed{\bf(3)/(2) }} \\ \hookrightarrow\sf{120\%=(120)/(100)=\boxed{\bf(6)/(5) }} \\\hookrightarrow \sf{58\%=(58)/(100)=\boxed{\bf(29)/(50)} } \\\hookrightarrow \sf{32\%=(32)/(100)=\boxed{\bf(8)/(25) }} \\ \hookrightarrow\sf{175\%=(175)/(100)=\boxed{\bf(7)/(4)} } \\`

`\hookrightarrow \sf123\% = (123)/(100) = \boxed{\bf1.23} \\ \hookrightarrow \sf2.25\% = (2.25)/(100) = (225)/(10000) = \boxed{\bf0.0225}`
