Online calculator: convert integer or decimal numbers, fractions, ratios and proportions to percentages



Converting integer or decimal numbers, fractions, proportions and ratios to percentages

It's very simple to write a fraction (a proportion or a ratio) or a decimal number as a percentage.

To convert a fraction:

  • - start by dividing the numerator by the denominator
  • - then multiply the result by 100%
  • By multiplying the result by 100% the value we've got at the previous step is not modified, since 100% = 100/100 = 1
  • By multiplying by 100% only the form is being changed - it's written as a percentage.

It's even simpler to write an integer or decimal number as a percentage:

  • - simply multiply the number by 100%

Examples

  • 1/4 = 0.25 = 0.25 × 100% = (0.25 × 100)% = 25%;
  • 7/8 = 0.875 = 0.875 × 100% = (0.875 × 100)% = 87.5%
  • 1.3/9.4 ≈ 0.138297 = 0.138297 × 100% = (0.138297 × 100)% = 13.8297%
  • 4.3 = 4.3 × 100% = (4.3 × 100)% = 430%;

It's easy to calculate how many percent is {0} of {1}. Let's set {1} to be a 100%, so we can get a 1% value by dividing {1} by 100 and getting {4}. The next step is to calculate how many percents in 11: divide 11 by 1% value ({4}) and get the result {3}%.

How to calculate grade for {0} right of {1}

First, you need to calculate your grade in percentages. The total answers count {1} - it's 100%, so we to get a 1% value, divide {1} by 100 to get {4}. Next, calculate the percentage of {0}: divide {0} by 1% value ({4}), and you get {3}% - it's your percentage grade. Last is to get your letter grade. Look at your local grade scale and find the range of estimates your percentage result is in. For the USA grading system, a value of {3}% corresponds to the letter mark {5}.

To find out how much {0} out of {1} is, you need to divide {0} by {1}. This is a fraction, usually written as {0}/{1}. Also, it's called the quotient of {0} and {1} or the ratio of {0} and {1}, it's all the same. The result of {0} of {1} in decimal = {2} {0} divided by {1} in fraction = {0}/{1} {0} divided by {1} in percentage = {3}%

Before we get started in the fraction to percentage conversion, let's go over some very quick fraction basics. Remember that a numerator is the number above the fraction line, and the denominator is the number below the fraction line. We'll use this later in the tutorial.

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 5/8 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:

5 x 12.5 / 8 x 12.5 = 62.5 / 100

Now we can see that our fraction is 62.5/100, which means that 5/8 as a percentage is 62.5%.

We can also work this out in a simpler way by first converting the fraction 5/8 to a decimal. To do that, we simply divide the numerator by the denominator:

5/8 = 0.625

Once we have the answer to that division, we can multiply the answer by 100 to make it a percentage:

0.625 x 100 = 62.5%

And there you have it! Two different ways to convert 5/8 to a percentage. Both are pretty straightforward and easy to do, but I personally prefer the convert to decimal method as it takes less steps.

I've seen a lot of students get confused whenever a question comes up about converting a fraction to a percentage, but if you follow the steps laid out here it should be simple. That said, you may still need a calculator for more complicated fractions (and you can always use our calculator in the form below).

If you want to practice, grab yourself a pen, a pad, and a calculator and try to convert a few fractions to a percentage yourself.
