Inverse fraction

Introduction to Inverse fraction: 

          In mathematics, an inverse fraction or reciprocal for a number x, denoted by 1/x or x -1, is an element which when inverse by x yields the inverse identity, 1. the inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. For the inverse fraction of a real number, divide 1 by the number. For example, the inverse fraction of 5 is one fifth (1/5 or 0.2), and the inverse fraction of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.
My forthcoming post is on math problem solver with steps free, math algebra solver will give you more understanding about Algebra

A word problem on percentages

Percentages are used to express how large one quantity is, relative to another quantity. The first quantity usually represents a part of, or a change in, the second quantity, which should be greater than zero. For example, an increase of $ 0.15 on a price of $ 2.50 is an increase by a fraction of 0.15 / 2.50 = 0.06. Expressed as a percentage, this is therefore a 6% increase.

Let's see a word problem on it.

Question:-

A waitress earn an average tip of 12% of the cost of the food she serves.If she serves $ 375 worth of food in one evening ,how much money in tips will she earn on average.

Answer:-
Waitress serves food worth=$375

She earns a tip=12%

So.
12% of $375


12
----- * 375
100

12*375
---------
375

4500
= -------
100

=$45

So the waitress earn a tip of $45.
