.55 is the same thing as

$${\frac{{\mathtt{55}}}{{\mathtt{100}}}}$$

We can figure this out by reason...

If it helps, think of this as a word problem:

Ginger's Grocery Store has 100 apples. You buy 55 of their apples for your apple pie fiesta.

You bought about half of the apples, and half of the apples is 50%. if you bought a little more than half, what's your percent?
