#475% and 4.75#

Explanation:

A fraction is converted to a decimal fraction by dividing the numerator by the denominator. In this case, since the numerator is larger than the denominator the number will be greater than 1. To convert the decimal fraction to a percentage you then multiply by 100. Therefore:

#19/4 = 19 -: 4 = 4.75# and

#4.75# x #100 = 475%#
