Convert Fraction to Percent

A fraction in mathematics is a number that represents a part of a whole. Written by two integers separated by a line, one is on the top of the line, and the other on the bottom. The top number is called the numerator (represents the number of equal parts of a whole), the bottom number is called the denominator (is the total number of parts that make up said whole).
