You should be familiar with long division involving decimals
To convert a decimal into a fraction, divide the number - without the decimal point - by 10 raised to the power given by the number of digits after the decimal point. For example, 0.0235 = 235/10000 Then simplify. Converting to a percentage is simpler from the decimal itself. Moe the decimal point two places to the left and add a percentage sign. SO, 0.0235 = 2.35%
The line in a fraction can be read as "divided by." Do the division. Then multiply that result by 100. 3/4 = three divided by four = 0.75 = 75%
Yes a whole number is a number without a fraction or a decimal point.
long division then move the decimal point
To convert a decimal to a fraction first put the decimal over 1 as to divide the decimal by 1. Next multiply the top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point. Finally simplify the fraction.

You write the decimal in the numerator, WITHOUT the decimal point. In the denominator, you write a "1", followed by as many zeros as there are digits after the decimal point in the original number. Finally, simplify the fraction if it can be simplified.For example: to convert 2.15 into a fraction, you write this as 215/100, then simplify.
To find 87.5% of a fraction or mixed number, you first convert the fraction or mixed number into a whole number with or without a decimal (ex. 3/4=.75; 1 3/8=1.375). Next, you take 87.5% and convert it into a decimal (for multiplication. To do this, you simply move the decimal point (.) two paces to the left (87.5=.875) and the opposite when converting a decimal to a percent. Next, you multiply .875 by whatever the converted fraction or mixed number came out as. Now you have your answer. Hope this helps.
Of course! Without decimals, you couldn't calculate percentages or fractions. Decimals allow you to break a number up. A decimal is basically a fraction, and when you calculate fraction adding, subtraction, multiplication, and division, sometimes it is easier to calculate a fraction by first changing it to a decimal instead.
Your fraction needs a numerator and a denominator. The numerator is the decimal number without the decimal point ie 348. There are two digits after the decimal place in your decimal number. So, your denominator is 1 followed by the same number of zeros. 1 followed by 2 zeros is 100. So the fraction is 348/100 The next step is to reduce this fraction to its lowest form: 348/100 = 87/25
Count the digits to the right of the decimal and divide the digits number, without a decimal, by 1 with (2 + number of digits right of decimal) zeros. So. 490.4% = 4904/100 = 4.904
Since 1.21 has two digits after the decimal point, you divide the number without the decimal point by 1 followed by two 0s. Then simplify if required (and if possible). So 1.21 = 121/100 which cannot be simplified.
