Multiply it by 100 but first note that 4.7777777...=43/9
0.7777777...=[1/10+1/100+1/1000+...]=7/9 (using sum of an infinite GP series with a=1/10 and r=1/10)
therefore you get (43/9)*100%= 4300/9%

First. do no longer hear to the guy above me. while you're working with a fragment you do divide as she stated. yet you may do the step listed under. while you're working with an entire style you progression the decimal 2 places to the main dazzling. EX: 5/10 =.5 (flow the decimal 2 to the main dazzling)=50% EX2: sixteen=1600% to alter a % back to a decimal/style you in undemanding terms flow the Decimal 2 places to the main dazzling. wish I helped.

let x be 4.777...

x=4.777...
10x=47.777....
10x-x=47.7777....-4.77777
9x=43
x=43/9

then turn 43/9 into percent

43/9x100%=4300/9%

so the answer is
4300/9 % (in fraction)
or
477 7/9% (in fraction)
or
477.78% (in decimal -> 2 places)

hope this helps

RULE:- To change a decimal to a % we multiply by 100
which just moves the decimal point 2 places to the right.

(4.77777777777777777)(100) = 477.777777777777777%

You can round it off if you like.

477.78%

It's approx. 4-3/4. (75%) The whole number is not a percent, but a fraction is converted into a percentage of a whole number.
