Ratio to percentage calculator: convert any ratio to a percentage

A ratio to percentage calculator converts a ratio a:b into a percentage by dividing a by b and multiplying by 100. It also provides the decimal, simplified ratio, and fraction with step-by-step work.

How to convert a ratio to a percentage

Divide the first number by the second and multiply by 100. For example, 3:4 = (3 ÷ 4) × 100 = 75%.

Percentages above 100% are valid when the first term exceeds the second. For instance, 5:4 = 125%.

percentage = (a ÷ b) × 100

Frequently asked questions

Is ratio to percentage the same as fraction to percentage?

Yes — a ratio a:b and a fraction a/b represent the same relationship. Converting either to a percentage uses the same division and multiplication by 100.
