What to Focus On

  • Percentage means 'per hundred'.
  • The symbol for percentage is '%'.
  • A percentage is a fraction with denominator 100.
  • Multiply the fraction by 100 to convert it to a percentage.
  • Always write the % symbol after the number.
  • Example: 3/4 × 100 = 75%
  • Multiply decimal by 100 to get percentage.
  • Moving decimal two places right gives the same result.
  • Example: 0.25 = 25%

Common Mistakes to Avoid

To convert a fraction to percentage, just multiply numerator by 100 and ignore the denominator.

When converting percentage to decimal, just remove the % symbol — no division needed.
