Good to know
Percent means per hundred: 12.5% = 12.5/100 = 125/1000. Dividing top and bottom by their greatest common divisor (125) gives the lowest terms, 1/8.
Fraction to percent: multiply by 100. 3/8 × 100 = 37.5%. Some fractions never end as decimals: 1/3 = 0.333… is shown as 0.(3), where the digits in brackets repeat forever, so 1/3 = 33.(3)%.
The maths is exact (no floating-point rounding), so 0.1 becomes exactly 1/10. Mixed numbers like 2 3/4 are shown for values above 1.
