Hey this is very easy to learn! So to express a decimal as a percent all we have to do is multiply it by 100. So multiplying .053 by 100 would just mean moving the decimal point 2 spaces to the right.
So the answer would be 5.3%
I hope this helps!

Answer:
(a)Bill's Total piecework pay =$500
(b)Amount owed by his boss=$26
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of documents put together and prepared for mailing by Bill =x
Bill receives 25 Cents=$0.25 for every document
Therefore for x documents, Bill should receive: $0.25x
If Bill prepared 2000 documents for mailing
x=2000
The amount he should receive = $0.25 X 2000 =$500
(a)Bill's Total piecework pay =$500
(b)Amount owed by his boss
=500-474
=$26
Collect like terms
6.5x-4.5x = 6+10
2x = 6+10
Divide both sides
2x = 16
X= 8
