To convert a percentage to a fraction, divide the percentage by 100 and simplify if possible. Let's convert 528% to a fraction, mixed number, and whole number.
1. Fraction: To convert a percentage to a fraction, divide the percentage by 100. Therefore, 528% is equal to 528/100. Simplifying this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 4, gives us 132/25.
