Neither - they are the same.
.005= .5%
005% = 5% which, as a decimal is 0.05
009 (9) is greater than 005 (5) by 004 (4)
005 is not equal to 5 %; 0.05 is. 0.05 = 5/100 and "/100" is the same as "per cent".
It is 005 percent!
.5% = .005
The highest value between 0.005 and 005 is 5. This is because 005 is equivalent to 5 in numerical terms, while 0.005 represents a much smaller value. Thus, 005 is greater than 0.005.
.005 percent = .05/100 = .0005
When you have decimals you times them buy 100 to get the percent so .5 equals 50% and .05 equals 5% and .005 equals .5%
0.005 in percent = 0.5%
Arrangement from greatest to least: 5. 0.5, 0.005, 0.00055 is the greatest
Answer: Yes, .625% of a % is greater than .005 % Solution: .625% of a percent = .625% * 1% = .625 / 100 * (1 / 100) = 0.00625 * .01 = 0.0000625 .005% = .005/100 = .00005 0.0000625 > 0.00005 The easy way to determine which converted number is larger is to align them as follows & look to see which number is greater: 0.0000625 0.00005 As you can see above, 6 is greater than 5, which means the upper number is greater than the lower number. === An easier way to convert .625% of 1% is to count the number of % characters & then know each % represents 2 digits. In this case .625% of 1% means you have 4 decimal places. So you just move the decimal place of .625, 4 decimal places to the left as in .625 converts to .0000625. Since there is only 1 % associated with the .005 number, you just have to move the decimal place 2 digits to the left as in .005 converts to .00005. Then line up your numbers as shown above and you should be able to easily see which number is larger.
