Answer:
0.125 and 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
To convert a percentage to a decimal, divide by 100 to move 2 decimal places to the left.
12.50% / 100 = 0.125
To convert a percentage into a fraction, rewrite the decimal number you got and put it over 1. Multiply the numerator and denominator by 1000 to move 3 decimal places to the right and get your fraction.
[tex]\frac{0.125}{1}[/tex] · [tex]\frac{1000}{1000}[/tex] = 125/1000
Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF, 125, to get your simplified fraction.
125/125 = 1
1000/125 = 8
125/1000 = 1/8
