Key Concepts

Fraction Basics

A fraction represents a part of a whole and is expressed as a ratio of two integers, with the numerator (top number) indicating how many parts are taken and the denominator (bottom number) indicating the total number of equal parts. Understanding fractions is essential for converting them into other forms, such as decimals and percentages.

Decimal Representation

Decimals are another way to represent fractions, particularly those with denominators that are powers of ten. The decimal point separates the whole number part from the fractional part, allowing for a more straightforward interpretation of values. For example, the fraction 1/100 is represented as 0.01 in decimal form.

Percentages

A percentage is a way of expressing a number as a fraction of 100, denoted by the symbol '%'. To convert a decimal to a percentage, you multiply the decimal by 100. For instance, the decimal 0.01 corresponds to 1%, indicating that it represents one part out of a hundred.
