How to calculate the percentage of a number?
Calculating the percentage of a number can be very easy. The number that you need to convert into percentage can be given to you in two ways, fraction and decimal.
1. Percentages and decimals
The decimal format is easier to calculate. Converting a decimal is simple as all you need to do is multiply it with 100. Example: To covert 0.77 to a percent, simply multiply 0.77 by 100, to get a result of 77%
2. Percentages and fractions
If you are given a fraction, first you need to divide the top number with the bottom number and then multiply it with a 100 to get the percentage.
