If you have 25% then you have to make the fraction 25/100 since percents are always out of 100. Then if you want to reduce that fraction you have to find out what factors those 2 numbers share.
Once you find the biggest factor of those numbers divide both the denominator and the numertor.
25/100 denominator and numerator divided by the same numbers
Divide by 25. You get 1/4

Devide the percentage by 100, then break it down to its smallest denominator. 68% is 68/100 /2 = 34/50 / 2 = 17/25 or abot 2/3
of course some percentages break down easy, some do not. depends on the percentage.

change the percentage to a fraction by dividing it by 100
for ex: 92% -----> 92/100
= 23/25

Just divide the number by 100
eg 50%=50/100, =5/10, =1/2
eg 25%=25/100, =5/20, =1/4
etc

Just devide the percentage by 100 and do not devide the numeretor with the denominator
eg:
20%= 20/100
=10/50
=1/5
but leave it up to that the lowest values that can be divisible to each other dont go ahead and devide the two values together just simplify them.
