3/17 as a Percentage

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

Numbers can be categorized into different types. Percentages are a way to express numbers as parts of a whole, specifically out of 100. To convert a fraction into a percentage, we multiply the fraction by 100. This process allows us to understand how a fraction relates to a whole in percentage terms. For example, when given a fraction like 3/17, we can convert it to a percentage to see its equivalent out of 100.
