In order to convert a percent to the decimal, the number should be divided by 100 and remove the percentage sign.

To convert decimal to mixed fraction:
1. Divide the given decimal number by the place of the decimal and remove the point from the numerator.
Example – 5.25
= 525/100
2. Simplify the fraction if possible.
Example = 525/100 = 21/4
3. Divide the numerator by the denominator.
On solving we get, 5 as the quotient and 1 as the remainder.
To convert into a mixed fraction = the remainder becomes the numerator and denominator remains the same
Mixed fraction becomes = 5 1/4
