Percentages, by definition, are divided by 100. So 25% = 25/100 which reduces to 1/4.
So, 50% = 50/100 which reduces to 1/2.
And so on.

25%=25/100
if you divide 25/100 by 25/25 you get 1/4
when reducing fractions you must divide both the top and bottom by the same number

a percent is a fraction
25% is the same as 25/100 (per cent means /100). 25/100 reduces to 1/4.
