Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

0.3 = 30% not 3%

to change a percentage to a decimal fraction, divide by 100

3% = \frac{3}{100} = 0.03

The answer is no.

Always remember when converting from percent to decimal, divide by 100%.

  • 3% ÷ 100%
  • 0.03 ≠ 0.3

Hence, the student's thinking is not correct.
