To convert a
fraction to a percent, follow these steps:
1.
Divide the numerator by the denominator to get a decimal.
2.
Multiply the decimal by 100 to convert it to a percent.
Alternatively, you can
multiply the fraction by 100% directly.
Let’s solve each of the given fractions step by step.

Left Column:
1. $ \frac{2}{50} = \frac{2 \div 2}{50 \div 2} = \frac{1}{25} = 0.04 = 4\% $
2. $ \frac{6}{50} = \frac{6 \div 2}{50 \div 2} = \frac{3}{25} = 0.12 = 12\% $
3. $ \frac{24}{25} = 0.96 = 96\% $
4. $ \frac{1}{10} = 0.1 = 10\% $
5. $ \frac{1}{25} = 0.04 = 4\% $
6. $ \frac{21}{25} = 0.84 = 84\% $
7. $ \frac{18}{20} = \frac{18 \div 2}{20 \div 2} = \frac{9}{10} = 0.9 = 90\% $
8. $ \frac{22}{25} = 0.88 = 88\% $
9. $ \frac{5}{10} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5 = 50\% $
10. $ \frac{4}{25} = 0.16 = 16\% $

Right Column:
11. $ \frac{45}{50} = \frac{45 \div 5}{50 \div 5} = \frac{9}{10} = 0.9 = 90\% $
12. $ \frac{19}{20} = 0.95 = 95\% $
13. $ \frac{20}{25} = \frac{4}{5} = 0.8 = 80\% $
14. $ \frac{6}{20} = \frac{3}{10} = 0.3 = 30\% $
15. $ \frac{28}{50} = \frac{14}{25} = 0.56 = 56\% $
16. $ \frac{16}{20} = \frac{4}{5} = 0.8 = 80\% $
17. $ \frac{3}{20} = 0.15 = 15\% $
18. $ \frac{41}{50} = 0.82 = 82\% $
19. $ \frac{21}{25} = 0.84 = 84\% $
20. $ \frac{23}{25} = 0.92 = 92\% $

✔ Tip: If the denominator is a factor of 100 (like 25, 20, 50), you can multiply both numerator and denominator to make the denominator 100, then read the percent directly.
For example:
- $ \frac{24}{25} = \frac{24 \times 4}{25 \times 4} = \frac{96}{100} = 96\% $
This method works well for quick conversions!
