A simple way to find the answers is to divide by 100.

Doing that for all percentages, we get:

41/100 = 0.41

98.3/100 = 0.983

157/100 = 1.57

Answer:

A) 0.41 B) 0.983 C) 1.57

Step-by-step explanation:

For each percent you have to move the invisible decimal points at the end forward 2 times. Except for 93.8% it already has a visible decimal, move that point forward twice.

Hope this helps, good luck! :)
