Answer:

Easiest—divide by 100: The simplest way to convert a percentage to a decimal is to divide the number (in percentage format) by 100

Move the decimal: Another way to convert a quoted percentage to decimal format is to move the decimal two places to the left. Remember, if you don’t see a decimal, just imagine that it’s at the end, or far right side, of the number. Imagine that the decimal is followed by two zeroes if that helps.
