Explain how to Converting Percents to Decimals ?

Percent : "Percent" means "per hundred." Percents are represented by a percent sign ( % ) to the right of a number.  For example, if you have a group of 100 people, 2% of that group would be two people. If you have a group of 200 people, 2% would be four people.

Converting Percents to Decimals

To convert a percent to a decimal:

Remove the percent sign.
Move the decimal point 2 decimal places to the left.

Example 1: 42.7% = 0.427

Drop the percent sign and move the decimal point two places to the left.

Example 2: 7.48% = 0.0748

Drop the percent sign and move the decimal point two places to the left. As the decimal point is moved, fill in empty decimal places with zeros.
