Let’s go through each percent and turn it into a fraction. Remember:
Percent means “per hundred” — so to convert any percent to a fraction, just write the number over 100, then simplify if possible.
We’ll do them one by one:
---
40% = 40/100 → divide numerator and denominator by 20 → 2/5
55% = 55/100 → divide by 5 → 11/20
27% = 27/100 → can’t be simplified (27 and 100 share no common factors)
54% = 54/100 → divide by 2 → 27/50
75% = 75/100 → divide by 25 → 3/4
83% = 83/100 → can’t be simplified (83 is prime)
6% = 6/100 → divide by 2 → 3/50
24% = 24/100 → divide by 4 → 6/25
7% = 7/100 → can’t be simplified
22% = 22/100 → divide by 2 → 11/50
---
Now the right column:
38% = 38/100 → divide by 2 → 19/50
63% = 63/100 → can’t be simplified (63 and 100 share no common factors)
64% = 64/100 → divide by 4 → 16/25
34% = 34/100 → divide by 2 → 17/50
42% = 42/100 → divide by 2 → 21/50
25% = 25/100 → divide by 25 → 1/4
91% = 91/100 → can’t be simplified (91 = 7×13, doesn’t divide 100)
80% = 80/100 → divide by 20 → 4/5
90% = 90/100 → divide by 10 → 9/10
85% = 85/100 → divide by 5 → 17/20
---
✔ All fractions are now in simplest form.
Final Answer:
40% = 2/5
55% = 11/20
27% = 27/100
54% = 27/50
75% = 3/4
83% = 83/100
6% = 3/50
24% = 6/25
7% = 7/100
22% = 11/50
38% = 19/50
63% = 63/100
64% = 16/25
34% = 17/50
42% = 21/50
25% = 1/4
91% = 91/100
80% = 4/5
90% = 9/10
85% = 17/20
