Convert Fraction to Percentage: Finding the Value of 11/50

Percentage means 'per hundred', so multiplying by 100 converts our decimal to show how many parts per 100. For example, 0.22 becomes 22 parts out of 100, or 22%.

Yes! You can multiply both numerator and denominator by 2 to get $\frac{22}{100}$ = 22%. This method works when you can easily make the denominator 100.

Look for the closest approximation in the choices. Since 22% is closest to 20%, that would be your answer when exact matching isn't available.

Think: $\frac{10}{50}$ = 20%, and $\frac{11}{50}$ is slightly more than $\frac{10}{50}$, so the answer should be slightly more than 20%.

That's normal! Many fractions create repeating decimals. Just calculate to 2-3 decimal places, then multiply by 100 and round to a reasonable number of decimal places.
