Answer:

Decimal: 0.08

Fraction: 2/25

Explanation:

To convert a percentage to a decimal, we divide the percentage by 100, or move the decimal point to the left 2 times:

8/100 = 0.08

To convert a percentage to a fraction, we need to understand what a percentage is first. A percentage is a "number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100". This means that percentages are numbers out of 100 (x% = x/100). Therefore, to convert 8% to a fraction, we divide 8 by 100:

8% = 8/100

Next, simplify the fraction

8/100 = 2/25
