2/25 as a percent value (as a percentage)

Detailed calculations below

Fractions: brief introduction

A fraction consists of two numbers and the fraction bar:

2/25

The number above the fraction bar is the numerator: 2

The number under the fraction bar is the denominator: 25

To get the fraction's value, divide the numerator by the denominator:

The value = 2 ÷ 25

Percent, p%: short introduction

'Percent (%)' means 'out of one hundred':

p% = p 'out of one hundred',

p% = p/100 = p ÷ 100.

How to convert a fraction to a percentage:

1) Calculate the value of the fraction.

2) Multiply this number by 100.

3) Add the percent sign %

Convert the fraction to a percentage

1. Calculate the value of the fraction:

To get the fraction's value, divide the numerator by the denominator:

2/25 =

2 ÷ 25 =

0.08

A quick note:

100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 100% = 1

Multiply a number by the fraction 100/100,
... and its value doesn't change.

n × 100/100 = n × 1 = n, any number n

2. The calculation of the percentage:

0.08 =

0.08 × 100/100 =

(0.08 × 100)/100 =

8/100 =

8%

The answer:

2/25 = 8% Divide the numerator by the denominator + multiply the result by 100 + add the percent sign %

The symbols used: % percent, ÷ division, × multiplication, = the equal sign, / the fraction bar, ≈ approximately the same. Writing numbers: comma ',' - as a thousands separator, point '.' as a decimal mark.

Converting integer or decimal numbers, fractions, proportions and ratios to percentages

It's very simple to write a fraction (a proportion or a ratio) or a decimal number as a percentage.

To convert a fraction:

• - start by dividing the numerator by the denominator
• - then multiply the result by 100%
• By multiplying the result by 100% the value we've got at the previous step is not modified, since 100% = 100/100 = 1
• By multiplying by 100% only the form is being changed - it's written as a percentage.

It's even simpler to write an integer or decimal number as a percentage:

• - simply multiply the number by 100%

Examples

• 1/4 = 0.25 = 0.25 × 100% = (0.25 × 100)% = 25%;
• 7/8 = 0.875 = 0.875 × 100% = (0.875 × 100)% = 87.5%
• 1.3/9.4 ≈ 0.138297 = 0.138297 × 100% = (0.138297 × 100)% = 13.8297%
• 4.3 = 4.3 × 100% = (4.3 × 100)% = 430%;

It's very common when learning about fractions to want to know how convert a fraction like 2/25 into a percentage. In this step-by-step guide, we'll show you how to turn any fraction into a percentage really easily. Let's take a look!

Before we get started in the fraction to percentage conversion, let's go over some very quick fraction basics. Remember that a numerator is the number above the fraction line, and the denominator is the number below the fraction line. We'll use this later in the tutorial.

When we are using percentages, what we are really saying is that the percentage is a fraction of 100. "Percent" means per hundred, and so 50% is the same as saying 50/100 or 5/10 in fraction form.

So, since our denominator in 2/25 is 25, we could adjust the fraction to make the denominator 100. To do that, we divide 100 by the denominator:

100 ÷ 25 = 4

Once we have that, we can multiple both the numerator and denominator by this multiple:

2 x 4 / 25 x 4 = 8 / 100

Now we can see that our fraction is 8/100, which means that 2/25 as a percentage is 8%.

We can also work this out in a simpler way by first converting the fraction 2/25 to a decimal. To do that, we simply divide the numerator by the denominator:

2/25 = 0.08

Once we have the answer to that division, we can multiply the answer by 100 to make it a percentage:

0.08 x 100 = 8%

And there you have it! Two different ways to convert 2/25 to a percentage. Both are pretty straightforward and easy to do, but I personally prefer the convert to decimal method as it takes less steps.

I've seen a lot of students get confused whenever a question comes up about converting a fraction to a percentage, but if you follow the steps laid out here it should be simple. That said, you may still need a calculator for more complicated fractions (and you can always use our calculator in the form below).

If you want to practice, grab yourself a pen, a pad, and a calculator and try to convert a few fractions to a percentage yourself.

Hopefully this tutorial has helped you to understand how to convert a fraction to a percentage. You can now go forth and convert fractions to percentages as much as your little heart desires!
