Question

A recent report indicated that a certain state had the lowest percentage of residents with no health insurance at 8 -%. Express the percent as a decimal,44184% =(Type an integer or a decimal)

Answer 1

We have to express the value 8 1/4 % in decimals.

We start by expressing the fraction as a decimal: 1/4 is 0.25, so the percentage is 8.25%.

To convert a percentage to a decimal, we have to take into account that one unit is equivalent to 100%.

Then, we can convert 8.25% into decimals dividing it by 100%:

`(8.25\%)/(100\%)=0.0825`

Answer: 8 1/4 % = 0.0825
