Fractions to PercentagesConsider you have an apple and you need to share it with your 3 sisters. So, in order to share, cut it into 4 equal parts. For each, 1 part of the whole apple (4 parts) is given.

Hence for each , it is 1 part in 4.

i.e., 1/4 = Fraction

The perentage of 1 in 4 is (1/4) * 100.

= 25 %
