Answer 1

Given fraction:

`\boxed{ \sf (5)/(6) }`

Two different ways to rewrite it :

• I am using equivalent fraction and percent

As percentage:

`\tt (5)/(6)`

Calculate the approximate value

`\tt \approx \: 0.833333`

Round the number to the nearest ten thousandth

`\tt0.8333`

Write as a decimal fraction

`\tt (83.33)/(100)`

By definition p/100= p%

`= \sf \: 83.33 \%`

Equivalent fraction:

Multiply both numerator and denominator by the same number, I am taking 2

`\bf (5)/(6) * (2)/(2) \\ \bf \: (5 * 2)/(6 * 2) \\ \bf \: = (10)/(12)`
