Answer: .14
Answer/Explanation:
I’m going to try to make this simple.
Decimals are complicated so:
4.48*100=448
to make it a whole number.
448/32=14
We do that because we want to find PER so we divide.
Since we multiple by 100. We must divide by 100. To turn it back to how the equation was originally.
14/100=.14
Answer: .14
You can check your answer by: .14*32=4.48
