Step-by-step explanation:

This is how I remember how to convert between the two. In percentages and whole numbers, the decimal point is behind the last number. For example, we have 98%. The decimal point is being eight. We would move the decimal point two times to the left, which would end up in front of nine. In decimals, you would start wherever the decimal point is. For example, we have 5.12. To convent that to a percentage, you would move the decimal two times to the right.

Note: It doesn't matter how big the number is or where the decimal point is, but you either move two times to the left or right depending on the situation.
