Keywords

decimal, percentage, proportion

we know that


(1)/(10)=0.10=10\%

Let

x-------> the decimal number

we know that

x represent the
100\% percentage

and
0.003 represent the
10\% percentage

so

by proportion


(0.003)/(10\%)=(x)/(100\%) \\ \\x=100*0.003/10 \\ \\x=0.03

therefore

The decimal number is
0.03
