Lesson Expressing Fractions to

1 Decimals and Percent
MOBILIZE AND FIRMUP
A. CONCEPT OF FRACTION
 A fraction is a number written in the form , where a and b are whole numbers
𝐛
but b cannot be zero. The number on top, a is called numerator, and the number below, b,
is called denominator.

In a fraction, the denominator tells the number of parts a whole is divided, while
2
the numerator indicates how many of those are taken. The fraction 5
2
is divided into five parts and that two of the five parts are taken. Moreover, also
5
means 2 ÷ 5.

Illustrative Examples:

Kinds of Fractions Examples

Proper fracti on is a fraction less than one. Its

Numerator is less than its 1 5 9
denominator. 2, 6, 10

Improper fraction is a fraction greater than or equal to

one. Its numerator is greater than its 5 7 12
denominator. 5, 3, 4

Mixed number is the sum of a whole number and a proper 1 1 3

2 , 4 , 6
fraction. 5 2 4

Similar fractions are fractions with the same

1 3 7
denominators 9, 9, 9

Dissimilar fractions are fractions with different

1 3 5
Denominators. 4, 5, 8

B. CONCEPTS OF DECIMAL
A decimal is a representation of a fraction whose denominator is a multiple of
10.

Illustrative Example:
 Fraction Decimal
1
0.1
10
2
0.02
100
456 56 4.56
100 = 4 100
104
0.104
1000
37
0.0037
10000

C. CONCEPT OF PERCENT

A percent which means “per hundred” is a representation of a fraction whose

denominator is 100. Thus, expressing a number in percent is like comparing it with
100.
25 88 3
a. 25% = b. 88% = c. 3% =
100 100 100

B.EXPRESSING DECIMALS TO FRACTIONS AND PERCENT FORMS

I. How to express decimals to fractions and percent forms?

c. Express decimal to a percent.
d. Express percent to a fraction.

Illustrative Examples:

Problem 1:
Express 0.4 as a percent and as a simplified fraction.

Solution:

Write 0.4 as 0.40, which is 40

hundredths. 40 hundredths is 40
0.4 = 0.40 = 40% percent.
Write as a percent
You can also move the decimal
point
two places to the right to find the
percent equivalent.
To write 0.4 as a fraction, you read
4
0.4 = the decimal, 4 tenths, and write 4
10 tenths in fraction form.
Write as a fraction
Simplify the fraction by dividing the
4 4÷2 2 numerator and denominator by 2, a

Solution:

Move the decimal point two

Write as a percent. 3.14 = 314% places to the right to find the
percent equivalent.
Replace the percent sign by
314
314% = a
100 denominator of 100.
Write as a fraction. 314 314÷2 157 7
100 = 100 ÷2 = 50 = 350 Reduce the fraction to lowest
term.

I. How to express percent to fractions and decimal forms?

a. Express percent to a fraction.
b. Express fraction to a decimal.

Illustrative Example

Problem 1:
Express 25% as a simplified fraction and as a decimal.

Solution:

Since % means “out of 100,”

25 25%
25% =
100 means 25 out of 100. You write
this
