Converting percent to ratio
Express the percentage as a fraction over 100, then simplify using the greatest common divisor. For example, 75% = 75/100, and GCD(75,100) = 25, giving 3/4 or the ratio 3:4.
For decimal percentages like 12.5%, first clear the decimal (125/1000) before simplifying to 1/8 or 1:8.
