Think of the % sign as meaning /100 like a fraction. You can see there is a line and two zeros so just swap it all around to /100.

So then 100%=100/100 which equals 1

So then 6%=6/100 (six hundredths)

six hundredths as a decimal = 0.06 (first number after decimal point is tenths, second number after the decimal point is hundredths).

Hope this helps!
