You can take away the percent sign. Think of it as a whole number. Move the decimal point back two spaces (to the left). There's your decimal. For example, 40%. Take away the sign=40. Move the decimal point back two spaces. .40 is the decimal version of 40%. It is vice versa, as well.

you convert a decimal to a decimal percent by moving the decimal point 2 times. For example, 245.3 is converted to 2.453. its ok to have decimal points on your percent

they might ask you " write the percent as a decimal : 245.3%" so u move the decimal place twice and your answer will be

2.453
