Answer:

0.65

Explanation:

1. When there is a percent sign, all that means is that the number attached to it is over 100 in fraction form. Therefore, 65% = 65/100.

  • For example: 35% = 35/100, 79.4% = 79.4/100, 324% = 324/100.

2. If you can calculate these fractions and turn them into decimals, it's easy to understand that 65/100 is 0.65. However, if not, there is an easy way to remember how to convert a percent into a decimal.

  • If our percent had a decimal, it would be right after the 5, making it 65.0% (the 0 has no value, just to make it clear that the dot is a decimal point and not a period).
  • To change this percentage to a decimal, you can move the decimal two places to the left and get rid of the percent sign. Moving the decimal to the left once gives 6.5, and moving it twice gives 0.65, which is what the answer is.
  • More Examples: 35.0% = 0.35, 79.4% = 0.794, 324.0% = 3.24

its 0.65

To convert a percentage to a decimal, you divide the percentage by 100.

For example, to convert 65% to a decimal:

1. Divide 65 by 100: 65 ÷ 100 = 0.65

So, 65% as a decimal is 0.65.
