Lesson One hundred and Thirty-eight: Fraction-Percent Equivalents

Given a fraction you can figure out the equivalent percent: 


	FRACTION	PERCENT
	  3/4		  75%
	  2/5		  40%
	  1/10		  10%
	  1/20		   5%
Remember that a single percent can be equivalent to many fractions: 

	40% = 2/5 = 4/10 = 8/20 = 16/40

	50% = 1/2 = 2/4 = 4/8 = 5/10

	25% = 1/4 = 2/8 = 4/16

	75% = 3/4 = 6/8 = 12/16

	10% = 1/10 = 2/20 = 3/30

Now you get to try a few for yourself.
