12.9 - 12.771 gives the same answer.
To change a decimal value in to a percentage you have to multiply by 100. This is the same as moving the decimal point two places to the right. So, 4.4 becomes 440%.
Converting a percent to its decimal equivalent is done by dividing by 100 (the same as moving the decimal two places to the left): 17.2 ÷ 100 = 0.172
Converting a percent to its decimal equivalent is accomplished by dividing by 100 (the same as moving the decimal two places to the left): 92.2 ÷ 100 = 0.922
Converting a percent to its decimal equivalent is accomplished by dividing by 100 (the same as moving the decimal two places to the left): 8.25 ÷ 100 = 0.0825
Moving the decimal point one place to the right is the same as multiplying both, he numerator and the denominator by 10. That is, you are effectively multiplying by 10/10 which equals 1. And since multiplication by 1 does not change the result, it is OK to do that. Similarly, moving two palces to the right is multiplying by 100/100. Similarly moving left.
multiply by 100, same as moving decimal 2 places to right
Moving a decimal point to the right is the same as multiplying a number by a power of ten. As long as both numbers are multiplied by the same amount, they will retain their same relationship.
Subtracting 6.72327 will do.
To change a decimal value in to a percentage you have to multiply by 100. This is the same as moving the decimal point two places to the right. So, 4.4 becomes 440%.
Move the decimal 2 places to right to change any decimal to a percent. Reverse, move decimal 2 places to the right to change any percent to a decimal. Knowing this should show that they represent the same quantities.
both signify a part of a whole. percentages are based on 100 being 1 so 100% is 1 whole thing. 1 whole thing with decimals is 1.00. You can change from decimals to percentages by moving the decimal 2 places to the right and percentages to decimals by moving the decimal 2 places to the left.
To divide by a decimal, make the divisor a whole number by moving the decimal point to the right; the dividend must also be changed by moving its decimal point the same number of digits to the right. So to divide 0.5 by 0.57, make the divisor 0.57 into 57 by moving the decimal point two digits to the right, then also move the decimal point of the dividend (0.5) two places to the right to give 50. Thus: 0.5 / 0.57 = 50 / 57 ~= 0.88
I have the same exact question:(
If you move the decimal point the same direction and number of places for the dividend and the divisor, this accomplishes the same thing as multiplying (or dividing) a numerator and denominator by the same number (in this case it is a power of ten). Moving the decimal place to the right by one place effectively multiplies the number by 10, and moving the decimal place to the left by one place is the same as dividing the number by 10. Example: 12345.6 / 10 = 1234.56
To change any number to a percent, just multiply it by 100. Moving the decimal point two places to the right has exactly the same effect. 21.5 = 2,150%
Converting a percent to its decimal equivalent is done by dividing by 100 (the same as moving the decimal two places to the left): 17.2 ÷ 100 = 0.172
To convert a percentage in to a decimal you must divide by 100. This is the same as moving the decimal point two places to the left.So 24.95% becomes 0.2495
