Starting from a decimal fraction, a percentage is simply the decimal fraction with the decimal point moved two place to the right.If you have a rational fraction, you convert it to an equivalent fraction whose denominator is 100. Then the numerator of that equivalent fraction is the percentage.
They are all different ways of representing numbers.
It would be 0.1. the fraction would be 1/10.
0.4 as a fraction and decimal
A decimal number is one in which the place value of each digit is ten times the place value of the digit to its right. (... , thousands, hundreds, tens, units, tenths, hundredths, ... ) A decimal point is used to separate the units from the tenths. If a number in decimal form has non-zero digits after the decimal point then it is a decimal fraction. [There is one esoteric exception: if the decimal point is followed by an infinite string of 9s, then it is not a decimal fraction.] Thus 37.6 is a decimal fraction 0.6 is a decimal fraction 0.00000063 is a decimal fraction 37 is not a decimal fraction. 37.0 is not a decimal fraction. 37.999... recurring is no a decimal fraction [it is in fact = 38].
No, data is information and decimal is a fraction out of a power of ten.

What, if anything, is "twenths"?
By definition, decimal means related to denominators that are powers of ten!
a decimal fraction means a fraction that changes into a decimal or a decimal that changes into a farction

0.21 is a decimal fraction.

That already is a decimal fraction.
It is called a decimal fraction.
