75%
75% of a dollar - is 75 cents !
No. The best way to explain this is to look at it as 100 pennies, which equals a dollar. Three pennies would be 3% of a dollar, and 75 pennies would be 75% of a dollar (or 3/4 of a dollar). 3 percent is equal to 0.03, or 3/100, while 75 percent is equal to 0.75, or 75/100. Therefore, 3 percent is much, much less than 75 percent.
3/4 of a dollar is 75%
Well honey, 75 percent of a dollar is 75 cents. It's like asking how many slices of cheesecake you can have if you eat 75 percent of the whole thing - the answer is 3/4 of the cake, or in this case, 75 cents. So, go ahead and treat yourself to that 75 cents worth of happiness!
You take the .8 and multiply it by 100 because a percent of something is one hundredths of 1. For example, 75 cents is 75 one hundredths of a dollar. 75 cents is written as .75 in decimal form. .75 (75 cents) is 75% of 1 dollar. To change 75 cents or .75 to a percent, you just multiply it by 100 which .75 times 100 is 75. So, to find out what .8 is as a percent you just multiply it by 100 which is 80.
