Answer:
25.5% = 51/200 as a fraction
Step by Step Solution
To convert 25.5 percent to a fraction follow these steps:
Step 1: Write down the percent divided by 100 like this:
25.5% = 25.5/100
Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point:
As we have 1 digit after the decimal point, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 10, or, simply shift 1 decimal place to the right. So,
25.5/100 = (25.5 x 10)/(100 x 10) = 255/1000.
Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the above fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) between them. In this case, GCD(255,1000) = 5. So,
(255÷5)/(1000÷5) = 51/200 when reduced to the simplest form.
