Solution

Your input: convert $$$3\frac{2}{5}$$$ into a percent.

To convert a decimal into a percent, we need to multiply the decimal by $$$100$$$.

Thus, to convert a fraction into a percent, multiply the fraction by $$$100$$$ and convert into decimal (don't forget to multiply the integer part and the numerator separately).

Multiply by $$$100$$$: $$$3\frac{2}{5}$$$ becomes $$$300\frac{200}{5}$$$

Convert the fraction into a decimal (for steps, see fraction to decimal calculator):

$$$300\frac{200}{5}=340.0\overline{}$$$

Answer: $$$3\frac{2}{5}=340.0\overline{} \%$$$
