How do you compare decimals and percents?
how you compare decimals and percents, is by the signs. a decimal looks like this: 0.0 and a percent looks like this: %
How are precents used to make comparisons?
I'll answer assuming you meant percent. Percents are the ratio of a number or fraction to 100, so 2% is 2 to 100. If you compare 29 and 1000 and you want to compare it through percents, convert 1000 to 100 by obviously dividing by 10. So, 29 / 1000 is 2.9%.
Why is it helpful to calculate percentage?
It is easier to understand rates of changes as percents, sometimes, than as a fraction. Such as the stock market fell 70%Also, you can compare percents and fractions are a little harder to compare. For example you got 91 percent right on your test and your friend took a similar test with twice as many problems and got 83% right. It is easy to compare the percents.There are many other reasons!
