Question

Which number is greater 20% or 0.02

Answer 1

20% is greater than 0.02 cause (easy way) if you convert 20% to a decimal it'll be .2 (take the 0 off) and .2(0) is greater than 0.02 so the final answer is 20% > 0.02

Answer 2

To compare these two values, we need them to be in the same form.  

To convert 20% into a decimal, we divide 20/100, or 0.20.  

When comparing decimals, we know that 0.2 > 0.02. 

Therefore, 20% > 0.02.  (20% is greater than 0.02)
