Answer:
A number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100
Explanation:
Use outside of percentages but reused under 100 when explained.
Steepness of a hill or gradient of a line = rise/run x 100
On a graph the numbers go from 0 for flat, to 100% at 45 degrees, to infinity as it approaches vertical.
Percentage is Tangent of a circle as where it meets it angle it always is intercepted by the circumference or new angle and becomes less than 180 as it forms a leg of a shape, or a side and 1% represents 100 x 0.01000033334% in Radians as another example. we multiply by 100 and get 1 Rad or a 180 degree line. Broadness of usefulness in percentage is the ratio so 1% of a radian can be the decimal above, and 100% of 1 rad = 180/pi =57.2957 We find a semi-circle has an arc length of pi*r and also that it is 180 degrees. From that you can conclude that the number of degrees in a radian is 180/pi and shows 50% of the circle but 100% of 1 radian.
