Question

Change to decimals. 1. 75%

Answer 1

Answer: 0.75

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.

So we can think of 75% as the ratio 75 to 100 or 75 ÷ 100.

Dividing by 100 moves the decimal point two places to the left so 75 ÷ 100 will move the decimal point two places to the left which would give us .75 or 0.75.

This means that 75% can be written as the decimal 0.75.
