Solve 1+7%-1

$$1 + 7 \% - 1$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{7}{100}=0.07$$

Solution Steps

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{100}{100}.

$$\frac{100}{100}+\frac{7}{100}-1$$

Since \frac{100}{100} and \frac{7}{100} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{100+7}{100}-1$$

Add 100 and 7 to get 107.

$$\frac{107}{100}-1$$

Convert 1 to fraction \frac{100}{100}.

$$\frac{107}{100}-\frac{100}{100}$$

Since \frac{107}{100} and \frac{100}{100} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{107-100}{100}$$

Subtract 100 from 107 to get 7.

$$\frac{7}{100}$$

Factor

$$\frac{7}{2 ^ {2} \cdot 5 ^ {2}} = 0.07$$
