The correct Answer is:
To convert each of the given fractions into percentages, we will follow a systematic approach. The general formula to convert a fraction \( \frac{x}{y} \) into a percentage is: \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{x}{y} \right) \times 100 \] Now, let's solve each fraction step by step. ### Step 1: Convert \( \frac{47}{100} \) into percentage \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{47}{100} \right) \times 100 = 47\% \] ### Step 2: Convert \( \frac{9}{20} \) into percentage \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{9}{20} \right) \times 100 = \frac{9 \times 100}{20} = \frac{900}{20} = 45\% \] ### Step 3: Convert \( \frac{3}{8} \) into percentage \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{3}{8} \right) \times 100 = \frac{3 \times 100}{8} = \frac{300}{8} = 37.5\% \] ### Step 4: Convert \( \frac{8}{125} \) into percentage \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{8}{125} \right) \times 100 = \frac{8 \times 100}{125} = \frac{800}{125} = 6.4\% \] ### Step 5: Convert \( \frac{19}{500} \) into percentage \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{19}{500} \right) \times 100 = \frac{19 \times 100}{500} = \frac{1900}{500} = 3.8\% \] ### Step 6: Convert \( \frac{4}{15} \) into percentage \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{4}{15} \right) \times 100 = \frac{4 \times 100}{15} = \frac{400}{15} \approx 26.67\% \] ### Step 7: Convert \( \frac{2}{3} \) into percentage \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{2}{3} \right) \times 100 = \frac{2 \times 100}{3} = \frac{200}{3} \approx 66.67\% \] ### Step 8: Convert \( 1.3 \) into percentage \[ \text{Percentage} = 1.3 \times 100 = 130\% \] ### Summary of Results: 1. \( \frac{47}{100} = 47\% \) 2. \( \frac{9}{20} = 45\% \) 3. \( \frac{3}{8} = 37.5\% \) 4. \( \frac{8}{125} = 6.4\% \) 5. \( \frac{19}{500} = 3.8\% \) 6. \( \frac{4}{15} \approx 26.67\% \) 7. \( \frac{2}{3} \approx 66.67\% \) 8. \( 1.3 = 130\% \)
