Let's solve each fraction and convert it to a
percent. The general rule is:
> To convert a fraction to a percent, divide the numerator by the denominator and multiply by 100.
Or, if the denominator is already 100, the numerator is the percent directly.

✔ Left Column:
1.
$\frac{8}{10}$
$$
\frac{8}{10} = 0.8 \quad \Rightarrow \quad 0.8 \times 100 = 80\%
$$
2.
$\frac{7}{10}$
$$
\frac{7}{10} = 0.7 \quad \Rightarrow \quad 0.7 \times 100 = 70\%
$$
3.
$\frac{55}{100}$
Since denominator is 100:
$$
\frac{55}{100} = 55\%
$$
4.
$\frac{83}{100}$
$$
\frac{83}{100} = 83\%
$$
5.
$\frac{79}{100}$
$$
\frac{79}{100} = 79\%
$$

✔ Right Column:
6.
$\frac{65}{100}$
$$
\frac{65}{100} = 65\%
$$
7.
$\frac{44}{100}$
$$
\frac{44}{100} = 44\%
$$
8.
$\frac{76}{100}$
$$
\frac{76}{100} = 76\%
$$
9.
$\frac{9}{10}$
$$
\frac{9}{10} = 0.9 \quad \Rightarrow \quad 0.9 \times 100 = 90\%
$$
10.
$\frac{6}{10}$
$$
\frac{6}{10} = 0.6 \quad \Rightarrow \quad 0.6 \times 100 = 60\%
$$

📝 Explanation:
- When the denominator is
100, the percentage is just the numerator.
- For fractions with denominator
10, divide the numerator by 10 (which gives a decimal), then multiply by 100 to get percent.
- This works because
percent means "per hundred", so we're expressing the fraction in terms of how many parts per 100.
