Answer

To write a percent as a fraction in lowest terms, first express the percent as a fraction with a denominator of 100, then simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor.

For example, to convert 25% to a fraction:

  1. Write as a fraction over 100: 25100\frac{25}{100}
  2. Simplify by dividing both by 25 (their greatest common divisor): 25÷25100÷25=14\frac{25 \div 25}{100 \div 25} = \frac{1}{4}
