What is a percent?

A fraction of a whole
A fraction of a hundred
A fraction of a thousand
A fraction of a decimal

The correct answer is: A fraction of a hundred

A percent is defined as a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100. This means that the number or ratio represents a portion or part of a whole that is divided into 100 equal parts. Option A and C are incorrect because they use specific numbers (whole and thousand) instead of a general term (hundred). Option D is incorrect because a percent is in fact represented as a decimal, but it is not a fraction of a decimal.
