This is the explanation:
In the fraction X/Y, Y is the whole. So Y is 100%. Now if you say "If Y is 100%, then how much is X?". This can be written like this:
If Y is 100% can be written as Y = 100
Then how much is X can be written as X = ?
So now draw a horizontal fraction line and put Y = 100 in the top section as the numerator and X = ? as the denominator like this:
Y/X = 100/?
Now calculate X in this way:
Y = X/100
For your example:
3/4 = x/100
4x = 300
x = 300/4
x = 75
Therefore, 3/4 is 75% of 4. You can prove this by saying that each 1 in 4 is equal to 25%. So 4 * 25 = 100%. Now 3 of those 25% will make 3*25 = 75%.
Thus, you can solve this equation like this also:
100%/4 = x
And multiply x by 3:
x = 100/4 = 25
3x = 3 * 25 = 75%.
Good luck.

To change a fraction into a percentage ALL you have to do is divide the numerator (3) by the denominator (4) and the result is a percentage: 0.75. That's all there is to it!

divide 100 by the number at the bottom ( 100/4 ) then multiply the result with the number at the top ( 25 x 3 = 75% ).
presto!

change the denominator to 100 by multiplying it by 25,
then change the top number by the same 25.
you get 75 over 100 or 75%. you have to get the bottom number to 100 and multiply the top number by the same amount.
