Question
the table shows the fraction of the population in selected countries that used cell phones in a recent year. complete the table by writing each fraction as an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 100.
| country | fraction of population using cell phones | equivalent fraction with a denominator of 100 |
|---|---|---|
| country b | 9/10 | 90/100 |
| country c | 23/25 | 92/100 |
| country d | 23/25 | 92/100 |
| country e | 16/25 | 64/100 |
| country f | 93/100 | 93/100 |
| country g | 4/5 |
Step1: Identify the multiplier
To convert a fraction $\frac{a}{b}$ to an equivalent fraction with denominator 100, we find the number $x$ such that $b\times x = 100$, then multiply both the numerator and denominator by $x$. For $\frac{4}{5}$, since $5\times20=100$, the multiplier is 20.
Step2: Multiply numerator and denominator
Multiply the numerator 4 by 20 and the denominator 5 by 20. So, $\frac{4\times20}{5\times20}=\frac{80}{100}$.
