1/23 expressed as a percentage is 4.35%. This tiny slice of a whole is easy to remember because it’s just under five percent of anything you’re measuring.
When you think of 1/23, picture a pizza cut into 23 equal slices and you take just one slice. That one slice represents roughly four and a third percent of the whole pizza.
In everyday terms, 4.35% can help you estimate small portions, like the interest on a tiny loan or the chance of a rare event happening in a large group.
Remember, the fraction 1/23 and its percentage are interchangeable – use whichever form makes the most sense for the situation.
