Often, convert 99/100 to a percent or 1.01 to a percent, depending on the task.

Determining the scaling factor:

Applying a scaling factor to convert fractions to percentages:

Solution:

For fractions:

In this guide, we’ll be focusing on the fraction 10/10 and how to convert it into its percentage equivalent.

Method 1 – Fraction Scaling:

1. Understanding Fractions: At the heart of every fraction, there's a division taking place. The numerator denotes the 'portions' we're focused on. The denominator reveals the total possible 'portions'. So, when we say $\frac{10}{10}$, we're essentially talking about 10 'portions' out of an available 10.
2. Explanation of Percentage: The term “Percent” has Latin roots, where “cent” means a hundred. So, a percentage essentially portrays a fraction where the denominator is always 100. For illustration, when we state 50%, it translates to 50 out of 100 or $\frac{50}{100}$ in fraction terms.
3. Transformation Process: To convert $\frac{10}{10}$ into a percentage, we must multiply the fraction to have 100 as its denominator. Begin by determining the factor by which 10 can be multiplied to get 100. This factor is $\frac{100}{10}\mathrm{=\; 10}$. Following this logic, multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10:$\frac{\mathrm{10\; \times \; 10}}{\mathrm{10\; \times \; 10}}\mathrm{=}\frac{100}{100}$.
4. Final Step: Once multiplied, the fraction denotes 100 out of 100, which is equivalent 100%.

Method 2 – Using Decimals:

1. Fraction to Decimal Transformation: Begin by expressing $\frac{10}{10}$ as a decimal. This step requires simple division: divide the numerator (10) by the denominator (10), resulting in 1.
2. Decimal to Percentage Conversion: Now, transform this decimal into a percentage. So, 1 multiplied by 100 equals 100%.
3. Wrapping Up: Through the decimal conversion method as well, $\frac{10}{10}$ is equivalent of 100% when expressed as a percentage.

Both methods, while distinct in approach, provide the same result. You can choose to use either the direct fraction scaling method or the decimal conversion method.
