Take the fraction x 100%

For example, 1/4 = (1/4) x 100% = 25%

Suppose you scored 20 out of 25 in a test.
% Mark = 20/25 X 100 = 20 X 4 = 80%
Rule is therefore to multiply fraction by 100.

multiply fraction and 100.

example: 0.04 x 100 = 4%
1.6 x 100 = 160%
2.344 x 100 = 234.4%
0.12345 x 100 = 12.345%
