Mandarin fractions has a lot of ways to say. So today we can learn some Mandarin Fractions.

Parts of a Whole
Divisional fractions and percentages are stated as “XX parts of YY,” with YY being the whole.

An example of this in English is:

two parts of three (two thirds)
The construction of this phrase is YY fēn zhī XX. Note that the number representing the whole comes at the beginning:

2/3:sān fēn zhī èr - two parts of three
1/2:One Half
One-half can be stated as either yī bàn (一半) or as above:èr fēn zhī yī – one part of two

Percentages
The same construction is used for percentages:

bǎi fēn zhī XX – XX parts of one hundred (XX%)

Decimal Fractions
Fractions can also be stated as decimals.

The decimal point in Mandarin decimal fractions is stated as diǎn (點 trad. 点 simp.)
