A percentage is telling us the ratio or proportion of something per one hundred of that thing.

This means that 55% of something is equal to 55 per 100. We write this as a fraction as 55/100. As a decimal this is equal to 0.55 (note how we can divide easily by 100 just by moving the decimal point two places to the left).
