    The gauge on Chantal’s weather monitor reads 34% humidity. She wants to know what this percent is as a fraction in  simplest form . How would she write it that way?
    ::尚塔尔天气监测仪的仪表显示的是34 % 湿度。 她想知道这个百分率以最简单的形式是多少。 她怎么写成这样呢?

    In this concept, you will learn to write percents as fractions in simplest form.
    ::在此概念中, 您将学习以最简单的形式 将百分比写成分数 。

    Writing Percents as Fractions
    ::将百分比写入分数

    Percents can be written as ratios. One of the ways of writing a ratio is to write it in fraction form with 100 as the  denominator . However, some fractions can be simplified. Therefore, you can write percents as fractions and  reduce  them to simplest form.
    ::百分比可以写成比例。 写一个比例的方法之一是以分数形式写成, 分数以100为分母。 但是, 某些分数可以简化。 因此, 您可以将百分比写成分数, 并将其减为最简单的形式 。

    As fractions and percents are both parts of a whole, you can interchange the way that you write them. A percent can be written as a fraction and a fraction can be written as a percent too.
    ::由于分数和百分数是整体的两部分, 您可以用您写成的方式互换。 百分数可以作为一个分数写成, 一个分数也可以作为一个百分数写成 。

    To write a percent as a fraction, you write the percent as a ratio with a denominator of 100. You can then write the fraction in simplest form, if possible.
    ::将百分比作为一个分数来写,您可以以100分母的比例来写,然后,如果可能的话,可以以最简单的形式写出这个分数。

    Let’s look at an example.
    ::让我们举个例子。

    Write 80 % as a fraction in simplest form.
    ::以最简单的形式将80%的分数写成一个分数。

    First, write the percent as a fraction with a denominator of 100.
    ::首先,把百分数写成一个分数,分母为100。

    80 100

    Next,  simplify  this fraction. You can start by canceling a  zero  in the  numerator  and one in the denominator.
    ::下一步,简化此分数 。 您可以从取消分子中的 0 和分母中的 1 开始 。

    8 0 10 0

    Now you have eight-tenths to simplify. Notice that both 8 and 10 are divisible by 2.
    ::现在您需要简化八十分之八。 请注意 8 和 10 都可除以 2 。 请注意 , 8 和 10 都可除以 2 。

    8 ÷ 2 10 ÷ 2 = 4 5

    Then check to see if your answer can be reduced further. In this case it cannot.
    ::然后检查是否您的答复可以进一步缩减。 在这种情况下, 它不能 。

    The answer is that 80% can be written as the fraction  4 5  in simplest form.
    ::答案是80%可以写成 以最简单的形式写成第45项。

    Let’s look at another example.
    ::让我们再看看另一个例子。

    Write 12% as a fraction in simplest form.
    ::以最简单的形式将12%的分数写成一个分数。

    First, write the percent as a fraction out of 100.
    ::首先,将百分数的百分数 写成100分之一。

    12 100

    Next, you simplify this fraction. The   of 12 and 100 is 4, so you  divide  both the numerator and the denominator by 4.
    ::接下来,您简化这个分数。 12和100是 4, 所以您将分子和分母除以 4 。

    12 ÷ 4 100 ÷ 4 = 3 25

    Then, check to ensure that the fraction cannot not be reduced further. In this instance it cannot.
    ::然后检查以确保分数不能进一步缩小。 在此情况下它不能 。

    The answer is 12% can be written as the fraction  3 25  in simplest form.
    ::答案是12%,可以写为第325项最简单的形式。
