can someone help me with these questions??

Question

Ok. my homework says Change the following into percents, round to hundreths if necassary.

5 over 12 =
37 over 53 =
7 over 10 =
220 over 100 =
25 over 20 =
19 over 32 =
and 4 over 25 =


...I failed math as you can see.. please im so desperate for your help..thanks

Answer 1

.42, .70 .7 2.2 1.25 .59 .16

Answer 2

Hun.. a calculator would be very helpful..
5/12= .4166667
37/53=.698
7/10=.700
220/100=2.200
25/20=1.250
19/32=.594
4/25=.160

okay now... anything that has a decimal you want to move it to the right two times. for an example with 5/12.., move the decimal two times it would be 41.666667. then as the decimal is placed.. the .6 would be a tenth.. the 66 would be hundreths.. then u take the next number and round it off.. ur answer would be 41.67

Another example, 4/25 would be .16 you move ur decimal 2 times and it would be 16.00, if you cant round it off then leave it as 16.00

Hope this helps, you may IM me any time

Answer 3

5 over 12=5/12=41.67%.
37 over 53=37/53=69.81%
7 over 10=7/10=70%
220 over 100=220/100=220%
25 over 20=25/20=125%
19 over 32=19/32=59.37%
4 over 25=4/25=16%
Its very simple...divide top by bottom, and shift the decimal point two numbers to the right...

Answer 4

Hello,
1. (5 over 12) percent=41.67%
2. (37 over 53)percent=69.81%
3. (7 over 10) percent=70%
4. (220 over 100)percent=220%
5. (25 over 20)percent=125%
6. (19 over 32)percent=59.38%
7. (4 over 25) percent=16%

Is this the Best Answer?

Answer 5

Divide the top number by the bottom number. So 5 divided by 12 is .4166666 or .42. Move the decimal place over 2 places to the right to be 42%. I think you should do the rest of these by yourself. Of course you could use the calculator feature of your computer to do the division. Go to start, then hit run, then type in calc into the input box and hit ok. The calculator will come up and help you do all the rest of these. Just remember, divide the top by the bottom.

Answer 6

Hi

Try this ...

Use a calculator to type 5 divided by 12 = .416666

Then move the decimal over 2 places to equal 41.67%

For a 220 / 100 you get 2.2 moving the decimal 2 places = 220%

Hope this helps

Answer 7

5 / 12

5 will not go into 1 but it will go into 12,....... 2 times

5 times 2 is only 10 so there is 2 left over....

Now the decimal point in the 12 (original problem) is right after the 12 i.e., 12.0

the 2 left over and bring down the 0 makes 20 twenty.

5 will go into 20 how many times? FOUR. duh! :-)

So the answer is 2.4

5/12 = 2.4

Answer 8

5 over 12 =0.41.666666666{a.p 7}
37 over 53 =0.6981132075,,,,,
7 over 10 =0.7
220 over 100 =2.2
25 over 20 =1.25
19 over 32 =0.59375
4 over 25 =0.16

Answer 9

simply divide the smaller number by the larger number and then multiply by 100 for the percentage:
5/12 =.416666666666
.4166666666*100=41.666 this would round to 41.67%

Answer 10

that's as simple as dividing! 5 over 12 is 5/12 = 5 divided by 12. if you're really lazy, use a calculator.

Answer 11

Divide the top no. by the bottom no. Then move the decimal of the quotient two places to the right. That will give you the answer in percent form.
