Answer:

One hundred and one tenths, or 1.05 in decimal form.

Explanation:

If a number is followed by a percent sign %, then the number indicates what proportion of 100% it stacks up to out of its base measurement (i.e., out of 100 yards run, this athlete ran 105). So if you converted 2% into decimal form that would be 0.02 or 200/1000th's (0.2), and 4% would be 0.04 or 400/1000ths equal to 0.4).
