Hello There!

"Percent" means "per 100" or "over 100". So, to convert 0.007 to percent we rewrite 0.007 in terms of "per 100" or over 100.

Multiply 0.007 by 100/100. Since 100/100 = 1, we are only multiplying by 1 and not changing the value of our number.


(0.007)/(1) X
(100)/(100) =
(0.7)/(100)

Therefore, we have shown that

0.007 = 0.7%

To convert a decimal to a percent simply just move the decimal point two places to the right and add the percent sign;
0.007 = 0.7%
Hope that helps:D
