It is really easy:
pretend it's 1%, ok?
What do you do? : 1 % is just as good as 1 over 100, which is a fraction. Also, it is 0.01 in a decimal (the one should be in the hundredth's place).
Want a different example? How about 32%?
Same thing: it is the same as 32 over 100, which is a fraction. (Get it? Like Per Cent? Cent stands for 100! So basically 32 per 100)
Then 0.32 is the decimal form.
I hope that this is helpful!
