4% as a Fraction

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

Numbers can be categorized into different types. A fraction is one such type, always represented in the form of p/q, where p is the numerator and q is the denominator. A fraction represents a whole and a fractional part. Percentages represent a fractional part of numbers. For example, 1/2. Percentages are expressed with a percent sign (%), such as 4%. We are going to learn how to convert a percentage to a fraction.

Answer

 

The answer for 4% as a fraction will be 1/25.

 

Explanation

 

Converting a percentage to a fraction is a straightforward task that can be accomplished by following the steps below.

 

Step 1: Convert the percentage to a fraction by placing the percentage number over 100. Here, 4% becomes 4/100.

 

Step 2: Simplify the fraction by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and the denominator and dividing both by it. In this case, the GCD of 4 and 100 is 4. 4/100 ÷ 4/4 = 1/25

 

Thus, 4% can be written as a fraction 1/25.
