A decimal is a way of representing a number in such a way that the place value of each digit is ten times that of the digit to its right. A decimal representation does not require a decimal point. So 5 cents is a perfectly legitimate way of writing the amount as a decimal number.
5%=.5 Divide the percentage by 100 to change it to a decimal: 5% = 5/100 = .05
0.05 is a fraction. It is a fraction in decimal form rather than in the form of a ratio. However, that does not stop it being a fraction. Its equivalent, in rational form, is 5/100. You can simplify this rational fraction if you require.
0.5 is already expressed as a decimal.
55 as a decimal is 55.000000...
0.05 percent in decimal = 0.0005
5% as a decimal is .05
05 is the same as 5.0

Here's an easy trick to remember decimals:If a number is over 10 then the decimal will be .0 (5/10 = .5)If a number is over 100 then the decimal will be .00 (5/100 = .05)If a number is over 1000 then the decimal will be .000 and so on (5/1000 = .005)Based on that 37/1000 would be .037
