Prime Numbers
What is prime number?
Prime number is a positive natural number that has only two positive natural number divisors: 1 and itself.The number 1 is not a prime number by definition - it has only one divisor.
The number 0 is not a prime number - it is not a positive number and has infinite number of divisors.
The number 15 has divisors of 1,3,5,15 because:
15/1=15
15/3=5
15/5=3
15/15=1
So 15 is not a prime number.The number 13 has only two divisors of 1,13.
13/1=13
13/13=1
So 13 is a prime number.Prime numbers list
List of prime numbers up to 100:
2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43,47,53,59,61,67,71,73,79,83,89,97,...
Is 0 a prime number?
The number 0 is not a prime number.Zero is not a positive number and has infinite number of divisors.
Is 1 a prime number?
The number 1 is not a prime number by definition.One is has one divisor - itself.
Is 2 a prime number?
The number 2 is a prime number.Two has 2 natural number divisors - 1 and 2:
2 / 1 = 2
2 / 2 = 1

Percent to Fraction Conversion and viceversa
How to convert percent to fraction
One percent is equal to one hundredth:
1% = 1/100
So in order to convert percent to fraction, divide the percent by
100 and reduce the fraction.For example 56% is equal to 56/100 with gcd=4 is equal to 14/25:
56% = 56 / 100 = 14 / 25
How to convert fraction to percent
To convert a fraction to percent, multiply the fraction by 100%.For example, 100% times the fraction 4/5 is equal to 80%:
100% × 4/5 = 80%

Decimal to percent conversion and viceversa
How to convert decimal to percent
1% = 1/100, so in order to convert decimal number to percent, it should multiplied by 100%:
0.01 = 1/100 = 1%
0.05 = 5/100 = 5%
0.3 = 30/100 = 30%
0.35 = 35/100 = 35%
3.5 = 350/100 = 350%
How to convert percent to decimal
In order to convert percent to decimal number, the percent should be divided by 100:
1% = 1/100 = 0.01
5% = 5/100 = 0.05
10% = 10/100 = 0.1
35% = 35/100 = 0.35
50% = 50/100 = 0.5
100% = 100/100 = 1
230% = 230/100 = 2.3

Decimal to Fraction Conversion
How to convert decimal to fraction
- Count the number of digits (d) to the right of the decimal point of the decimal number x.Example: 2.56 has 2 digits to the right of the decimal point, so d=2.
- Calculate the factor (f) for making the decimal number an
integer:f = 10dExample:
f = 102 = 100 - Multiply and divide the decimal number x by the factor f:x × f / f = y / fExample:
2.56 × 100 / 100 = 256 / 100 - Find the greatest common divisor (gcd) of the fraction.
Example:
gcd(256,100) = 4 - Reduce the fraction by dividing the numerator and
denominator by the gcd value:Example:
256 / 100 = (256/4) / (100/4) = 64/25

Percentage (%)
Percentage is per-cent which means parts per hundred.
One percent is equal to 1/100 fraction:
It is written to the right side of the number: 50%
1 percent represents 1/100 fraction.
100 percent (100%) of a number is the same number:
One percent is equal to 1/100 fraction:
1% = 1/100 = 0.01
Ten percent is equal to 10/100 fraction:
10% = 10/100 = 0.1
Fifty percent is equal to 50/100 fraction:
50% = 50/100 = 0.5
One hundred percent is equal to 100/100 fraction:
100% = 100/100 = 1
One hundred and ten percent is equal to 110/100 fraction:
110% = 110/100 = 1.1
Percent sign
The percent sign is the symbol: %It is written to the right side of the number: 50%
Percentage Definition
Percentage is a value that represents the proportion of one number to another number.1 percent represents 1/100 fraction.
100 percent (100%) of a number is the same number:
100% × 80 = 100/100×80 = 80
50 percent (50%) of a number is half of the number:
50% × 80 = 50/100×80 = 40
So 40 is 50% of 80.Percentage of a Value Calculation
x% of y is calculated by the formula:
percentage value = x% × y = x × y / 100
Example:
Find 40% of 200.
40% × 200 = 40 × 200 / 100 = 80
Percentage Calculation
The percentage of x from y, is calculated by the formula:
percentage% = (x / y) × 100
Example:
The percentage of 30 out of 60.
30 / 60 × 100 = 50%
Percentage Change (increase/decrease)
Percentage change from x1 to x2 is calculated by the formula:
percentage change = 100 × (x2 - x1) /
x1
When the result is positive, we have percentage growth or increase.Example:
Percentage change from 60 to 80.
100 × (80 - 60) / 60 = 33.33% increase
When the result is negative, we have percentage decrease.Example:
Percentage change from 80 to 60.
100 × (60 - 80) / 80 = -25% decrease
