Question

I need help explaining my 32 percent is equivalent to 32/100?

Answer 1

The expression for percentage is express as:

$\text{Percentage}=\frac{Amount\text{ for percentage}}{Total\text{ amount}}\times100$

Percentages indicate how large or small one number is in relation to another. They do this by expressing a number as a fraction of 100.

For the 32%, , divide 32 by 100

$\text{ 32\%=}\frac{32}{100}$
