Move the decimal point two positions to the left.
For example,
750% = 7.5
75% = 0.75
7.5% = 0.075
You turn a fraction into a decimal by dividing the top number by the bottom. And you turn a decimal into a percent by multiplying the decimal by 100.
There are decimal points in decimal numbers. They look just like periods.
2.2
It is: pi = 3.14 in two decimal places
34 as a decimal is simply 34.0
put the percent over 100 then divide the top by the bottom and it is a decimal.
Well you firstly you turn it into a decimal e.g 1/2=0.5 and then you multiply the decimal by 100 e.g 0.5=50%. So that's how you do it 1/2=50%
For future refernce,in order to turn a decimal into a percentage you would move the decimal 2 places to the right,and a lot of the zeros are used as place holders,so 0.204 being displayed as a decimal would be written as %20.4,and to turn percentages into decimals, you would move the decimal 2 places to the left,so 20.4 percent would turn back into 0.204,which would be the same as .204,but again,the zeros are often nothing more than place holders.Decimals into percentages=2 places to the right;percentages into decimals=2 places to the left.
Decimals and percentages are easier to compare than fractions - particularly if they are unlike fractions. That does not explain why percentages are required when we have decimal number and there is no good answer to that!
Change it to a decimal and then multiply it.
Decimal to percent- move the decimal 2 (two) places to the right and add the percent sign. percent to decimal- move the decimal 2 (two) places to the left and take away the percent sign.
Remove the percentage sign and divide by 100. In decimal form, it means simply move the decimal point two spaces to the left.
Points
Move the decimal two places to the right to change decimal to percent. 0.3=30%
Divide percentages by 100 to get the decimal equivalent. So, 10.6 / 100 = 0.106
Divide percentages by 100 to get the decimal equivalent. So, 155 / 100 = 1.55
Divide percentages by 100 to get the decimal equivalent. So, 165 / 100 = 1.65
