1. What is Fraction to Percentage Conversion?

Fraction to percentage conversion is the process of converting a fractional value (a/b) to an equivalent percentage value by multiplying by 100. This is commonly used to express proportions and ratios in a more intuitive format.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the simple formula:

Where:

• \( a \) — Numerator (unitless)
• \( b \) — Denominator (unitless)

Explanation: The fraction a/b represents the proportion, and multiplying by 100 converts this proportion to a percentage.

3. Importance of Percentage Calculation

Details: Percentage values are more intuitive for most people to understand than fractions. They are widely used in statistics, finance, science, and everyday life to express proportions and changes.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter both numerator and denominator as positive numbers. The denominator cannot be zero. The result will be shown as a percentage with two decimal places.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What if my denominator is zero?
A: Division by zero is undefined. The calculator will not compute a result if denominator is zero.

Q2: Can I use decimal numbers?
A: Yes, both numerator and denominator can be decimal numbers.

Q3: What's the difference between fraction and percentage?
A: A fraction represents a part of a whole (a/b), while a percentage represents parts per hundred.

Q4: Can percentages be greater than 100%?
A: Yes, when the numerator is greater than the denominator, the percentage will exceed 100%.

Q5: How precise is the calculation?
A: The calculator shows results rounded to two decimal places for clarity.
