Numbers can be categorized into different types. Fractions are one of these types. They are always represented in the form of p/q, where p is the numerator and q is the denominator. Fractions represent both whole and fractional parts. Percentages are another way to represent parts of a whole, where the whole is considered as 100. For example, 130%, the percentage is expressed with a percent sign (%). We are going to learn how to convert a percentage to a fraction.
