Question

What’s 8 over 1000 as a percentage?

Answer 1

`8/1000=0.8%`

Explanation:

A percentage is something out of a hundred. In this case, we can get the denominator to be `100` if we divide both the numerator and denominator by `10`:

`8/1000=(8 \/ 10)/(1000 \/ 10)=0.8/100`

Since the denominator is `100`, we have our percentage, which means that `8 \/ 1000` is equal to `0.8%`

Answer 2

`8 " over " 1000 = 8/1000`

For converting a fraction into percentage, we need to multiply it by `100`.

So,
`8/1000xx100 = 8/10% = color(red)(0.8%`
