How do you change a decimal into a percentage?
to change a decimal into a percentage you must take the first two numbers behind the decimal and that is your percentage. If there is only one number like 0.1 add a zero behind that number, and that's your percentage. If there is a number in front of the decimal like 1.9 than the percentage will be in the hundreds. Just add a zero behind the nine, and your percentage is 190%.
