Best Answer

When you are dealing with decimals and percentages the difference between the two will be the place and or presence of the decimal point and percentage sign.

If you're given a number in decimal form, moving the decimal point twice to the right will result in its percentage. Similarly, if you're given a number that's a percentage you move the decimal twice to the left to get the number in decimal form.

For Example:

If you're given 0.6% and need to convert it to its decimal form, you would get .006

To change .006 back to a percentage, you would get 0.6%

I've included a link below that provides a more in depth description.
