In this video I have first explained how to change complex fractions into percentages and vice versa. These type of questions are directly asked in Bank Po type examinations and when it comes to CAT there understanding is very important. After that I have told what is the effect of percentage change in the numerator and denominator on the whole number. The effect of numerator change is easy to understand but the effect of denominator change is slightly tricky to understand. Now after finishing with these two things I have then started explaining below questions.
Convert below fractions into percentages -
