Parts per million express a fraction of a mixture: 1 ppm means one part solute per one million parts total. Percent expresses the same idea in parts per hundred. Because 1,000,000 ÷ 100 = 10,000, converting between ppm and percent uses a fixed factor of 10,000.
percent = ppm ÷ 10,000ppm = percent × 10,000ppb = ppm × 1,000These relationships assume you are using the standard definitions of ppm, ppb, and percent as dimensionless fractions of the whole.
| ppm | Percent |
