Formula
The formula never changes. What changes is the story around the numbers: proper fractions stay under 100%, improper fractions can exceed 100%, and mixed numbers want an improper rewrite first.
Step-by-step guide
Pick a fraction. If it is mixed, convert to improper form. Divide. Multiply by 100. Compare to a benchmark such as one half or one quarter.
For mixed-number rules in depth, follow mixed fraction to percentage once these quick cards feel familiar.
Example
Simple: 1/4 is 25%. Proper: 2/7 is about 28.57% when rounded to two decimals. Improper: 5/4 is 125%. Mixed style: 1 1/8 is 9/8, which is 112.5%.
FAQ
Should I memorize all decimals?
Memorize common benchmarks and use division for everything else. Memorizing every denominator is rarely worth the time.
