0.72 is greater than 0.27
It's easier if you get rid of the decimals. 72/900 = 0.08
how you compare decimals and percents, is by the signs. a decimal looks like this: 0.0 and a percent looks like this: %
You can either convert fractions to decimals and compare the decimal numbers; find equivalent fractions with the same denominator and then compare numerators or find equivalent fractions with the same numerator and then compare denominators.
Convert all ratios to percentages or decimals (as you like) and then compare them.
Write them as decimals, and compare. If the first digit of two numbers is equal, compare the second digit; if the second digit is equal, compare the third digit, etc.

0.04 is the larger. to compare any decimals. Bring both decimals to the same number of decimal places by inserting suffix zeroes. Hence 0.040 & 0.027 ( 3 d.p.) Drop the decimal points. Hence 0040 & 0027 Drop the prefix zeroes. Hence 40 & 27 . I think you will agree that 40 > (greater than) 27 . Hence it follows that 0.04 > 0.27 NB This method is good for comparing any sets of decimals.

Make them into decimals. Make them into decimals.

To compare decimals, first align the numbers by their decimal points. Then, start from the leftmost digit and compare each corresponding digit. The first digit that differs determines which decimal is larger or smaller. If all digits are the same, the decimals are equal.
Any time we compare decimals, except in out dreams/nightmares! We cannot leave the real world purely for the purpose of comparing decimals and return to the real word when we have done that!

You compare the integer parts first.
Two ways: convert them to decimals or convert them to similar fractions and compare the numerators.
