0.349
1.26

8. HOW TO CHANGE PERCENT TO A FRACTION IN LOWEST TERMS
EXAMPLE ÷2 9 25 ÷2 36
100 18 50 % 36 = = = ÷2 ÷2
USE DIVISIBILITY RULES TO MAKE THIS FASTER

9. HOW TO CHANGE PERCENT TO A FRACTION IN LOWEST TERMS
EXAMPLE 1 4
÷25 5 4
125
100 = 1
125 % = =
÷25
Why do we say move the decimal two places to the left?
We are dividing by 100 because percent is “out of 100”

10. HOW TO FIND THE PERCENT OF A NUMBER
EXAMPLE 25 % 40 OF
1) Change Percent to a fraction and multiply 1 4 40 4 40 10 25 % = x = =

11. HOW TO FIND THE PERCENT OF A NUMBER
2) If both numbers end in 0, multiply the first digits together 20 % 60 OF 2 6 = 12 x

12. 50 % 10 50 % = 10 10 50 = ? % 10 = ? 10 = 20 DETERMINE THE NUMBER x x
OF A NUMBER IS
_____ x 50 % = 10 10 ÷ 50 = ? % 1 2 10 ÷ = ? 2 1 10 x = 20

13. EXAMPLE 60 % 42
OF A NUMBER IS
