Harriet used the work below to determine the percent equivalent to One-eighth.
Step 1: One-eighth = StartFraction question mark Over 100 EndFraction
Step 2: 8 divided by 100 = 0.08
Step 3: 0.08 times 1 = 0.08
Step 4: 0.08 percent
What was Harriet’s error?
In Step 1, she set up the proportions incorrectly.
In Step 2, she divided 8 by 100 instead of 100 by 8, so she cannot multiply the numerator by the factor.
In Step 3, she multiplied the numerator instead of the denominator by the factor.
In Step 4, she forgot to move the decimal.
