35 percent means a number less than 1, which is shown to the LEFT of the decimal place. But you have 35 one-hundredths (per cent means "for each 100") of 1. That is shown to the RIGHT of the decimal place, in the space for one-tenths and one-hundredths.
A non-negative number less than 1 is..... 0! So you write 0. after you add the decimal point. Now you have how many one-hundredths to place in the space for each one-tenth and each one-hundredth? 35!!!!! That is 3 one-tenths and 5 one-hundredths.
So your decimal is 0.35, which means 35%.
To convert a percent to a decimal, express the percent as a decimal then move the decimal point to the left two places:3.5% = 0.035
35% as a decimal is 0.35
35% = 0.35
As a decimal = 0.35 As a fraction = 35/100 or 7/20
35% = 0.35
35% = 0.35
35 percent = 35/100 = 0.35 So easy!
0.35
3.5% has a decimal equivalent of 0.035
