Conversion in two steps

  1. Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction: a b/c = (a·c + b) / c.
  2. Multiply by 100 (or move the decimal point two places to the right): (numerator / denominator) × 100 %.
a b/c  →  (a·c + b) / c  →  (a·c + b) × 100 / c  %

FAQ

Why is 1 1/2 equal to 150%?

1½ = 1.5 = 150 hundredths = 150%. Mixed numbers ≥ 1 always exceed 100%.

How do I round to whole percent?

Set the decimal-places field to 0. The "Exact" row keeps the full precision regardless of rounding.
