What number is 5% of 46?

46 x 0.05, since 5% = 0.05 (5 / 100 = 0.05)

46 x 0.05 = 2.3

7/12 is 58.33% 
How do we change fractions to percents? 
The steps are too simple. 

First, divide the numerator (the number at the top of the fraction) by the denominator (the number below the fraction). 
In the case above, 7 is the numerator and 12 is the denominator. 

So, 7 ÷ 12 = 0.58333 

Then, multiply the result by 100. 0.5833 x 100= 58.33 

Finally, add the percent (%) sign to the result. 

Therefore, 7/12 is 58.33%.
