How do you convert a proportion into a percent?

In: Units of Measure, Geometry [Edit categories]

Answer:

You can make the proportion into a percent by dividing the numerator by the denominator and then moving the decimal point two spaces over to the right. That's your percent.

Also if the denominator is a factor of 100, you can set it to a hundred. Example:

2/5=40/100. So the percent is 40%, the numerator over 100.
