7/8 कन्वर्ट इनटू परसेंटेज
Answers
Answer:
When we are using percentages, what we are really saying is that the percentage is a fraction of 100. "Percent" means per hundred, and so 50% is the same as saying 50/100 or 5/10 in fraction form.
So, since our denominator in 7/8 is 8, we could adjust the fraction to make the denominator 100. To do that, we divide 100 by the denominator:
100 ÷ 8 = 12.5
Once we have that, we can multiple both the numerator and denominator by this multiple:
7 x 12.5
8 x 12.5
=
87.5
100
Now we can see that our fraction is 87.5/100, which means that 7/8 as a percentage is 87.5%.
We can also work this out in a simpler way by first converting the fraction 7/8 to a decimal. To do that, we simply divide the numerator by the denominator:
7/8 = 0.875
Once we have the answer to that division, we can multiply the answer by 100 to make it a percentage:
0.875 x 100 = 87.5%
