How to convert percentage to decimals.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Darina [25.2K]3 years ago
6 0

Step-by-step explanation: To write a percent as a decimal, first remember that a percent is a ratio that compares a number to 100.

If we want to convert any percent to a decimal, you want to think of the percent as a ratio of the percent to 100 or the percent divided by 100.

Dividing by 100 moves the decimal point 2 places to the left so we will move the decimal point 2 places to the right to get our answer.

Let's look at an example.

<em>Write the following percent as a decimal</em>. 9%

We know that we can change a percent to a decimal by simply moving the decimal point 2 places to the left.

So in this problem, to write 9% as a decimal, we simply move the decimal point 2 places to the left and fill in the missing position with a zero.

So 9% can be written as the decimal <em>.</em>09 or 0<em>.</em>09.

A common mistake in this problem is to write 9% as the decimal 0.9 but remember to move the decimal point 2 places to the left so our answer is 0<em>.</em>09.

A 5000 seat theater has tickets for sale at 26 and 40. How many tickets should be sold at each price for a sellout performance t
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

The number of tickets for sale at $26 should be 3300

The number of tickets for sale at $40 should be 1700

Step-by-step explanation:

Use 2 equations to represent the modifiers within the problem:

5000 = a + b \\ 153800 = 26a + 40b

Now you want to find the point at which the variables are changed to make both equations correct, this can be done by graphing and finding the intersection of both lines.

5000 = 3300 + 1700 \\ 153800 = 26(3300) + 40(1700)
