Converting fractions to a percentage can be very helpful. Let's go through the steps to change a decimal into a percentage.

You can try different values to learn more about the conversion process.

Often, convert 43/25 to a percent or 1 4/5 to a percent, depending on the task.

Conversion to improper fractions:

1 \frac{3}{4} = \frac{1 × 4 + 3}{4} = \frac{7}{4}

7 ÷ 4 = 1.75 × 100 = 175%

1 3/4 = 175%

A mixed fraction combines a whole number with a fraction, showing both parts together. This makes it easy to understand values between whole numbers.

A percent represents parts of a hundred. The symbol “%” shows proportions. 50% means half, and 200% means double the original value.

When we have a mixed number, like 1 3/4, we can express it as a percentage to grasp its relative value.

A mixed number combines a whole number and a fraction. In our example, the whole number is 1, and the fraction is $\frac{3}{4}$ .

Convert to an Improper Fraction: To start, change the mixed number into an improper fraction. Multiply the denominator by the whole number, then add the numerator.
1 × 4 + 3 = 7. So, the fraction becomes $\frac{7}{4}$ .
Turn a Fraction into a Decimal: Divide the numerator by the denominator to get the decimal form. 7 ÷ 4 = 1.75.
Multiply by 100 to Get Percentage: Take the decimal value and multiply by 100.
1.75 × 100 = 175.
Add the Percentage Symbol: Conclude by appending the % sign. Our final value is: 175%

The mixed number 1 3/4, when transformed, is 175%. This method offers a structured approach to understand values beyond the 100% threshold.
