How Do You Change A Percent To A Decimal?

In decimal, 1.00 is always 100%. While half of it is 0.5, or 50%. 5% is 0.05.

The general rule is to shift the decimal point on a percent to the left twice (which is the same as dividing by 100).

5% becomes:

5 (forget the % sign)
.5 (shift left once)
.05 (shift left twice)

So 5% = .05 = 0.05

or you can just divide by 100 on a calculator:

5/100=.05

To change from a decimal to a percent, you just shift RIGHT twice or MULTIPLY by 100 instead.

Drop the percent symbol (%) add a decimal point move the decimal point 2 places to the left

50%=.50

What is the number?
10%=.1
20%=.2
30%=.3
etc..

Divide the percent by 100%

22% to what decimal?

3.3% to a decimal

"per cent" loosely translates to "per hundred", so that if you have a number like 10%, it will read .10 as a decimal.  Any two numbers after the dot is per hundred.  If you are changing a single number (like 4%), it will read .04.

Its simple.you just need 2 place the decimal point to 2 places towards left.for eg:2%=0.02 in decimal.

How o I change 125% to a decimal and 125% to a fraction

187 1/2%

Example 3

Express 15% as a decimal.

Solution:

Example 4

Solution:

82%

27.3

30%

9.65

37%

Change 4.4 to a percent

165 is what percent of 33?

Example 88%. Just divide by 100.   88 divided by 100 = .88

70%

350%

You move the decimal point two places to the left, but two places to the right when changing from a decimal to a percent. For example:

(changing from a percent to a decimal) (changing from a decimal to a percent)
.125 = 12.5
12.5 = .125

If shane mobley gets hit in the nuts 40% of the day but the next day he had a chance of 67% whats the percent of change?

This has been answered before, several times--here and here and here, for starters.

From the decimal point MOVE to the LEFT TWICE

example:
8.73% = 0.0378

I have math test next day after today. No sense made in class. Sense made now.

To change a percent to decimal the number in percent must be divided into 100.
