Question

Help!! Turn each percent to a decimal

1. 999.9%
2. 725 1/5%
3. 1,000%
4. 101 3/10%
5 . 175 1/4%

Answer 1

To turn a percentage into a decimal we divide by 100:

1. 999.9% = 9.999

2. 725.2% = 7.252
(1/5 = 0.2 so I changed this into a decimal to make 725.2)

3. 1000% = 10

4. 101.3% = 1.013
(3/10 = 0.3)

5. 175.25% = 1.7525
(1/4 = 0.25)
