How do you convert 2.48 into a percent and fraction?

Answer 1

`2.48=62/25=248%`

Explanation:

`2.48` is a decimal fraction and hence as it is only up to `2` places of decimal, it is equivalent to

`2.48=2+4/10+8/100=248/100=(4xx62)/(4xx25)=62/25`

Hence in fractions, `2.48` is `62/25`.

To convert a fraction into percent, one should multiply it by `100`.

Hence `2.48=248/100xx100%=248%`
