x 20 Fraction to Percent 1.Make an equivalent fraction with 100 as the denominator EX 3) EX 4) 1 5 = =20 % 2. Any fraction with a denominator of 100 can be written with the numerator as a percent. X X x 5 16 = 3. Use solve proportions when denominator cannot be multiplied by a whole number to make an equivalent fraction with 100 as the denominator.  Cross multiply and divide 5 x 100 ÷ %  Leave as fraction or make decimal 1 %  Mixed number – Whole number goes first
