Question

One brand of juice contains 0.05 of natural juice. Which is this decimal written as a percent?

A) 0.05%
B) 5%
C) 0.5%
D) 50%

Answer 1

B.5%.

0.05 x 100 = 5

Answer 2

B.) 5%

Explanation:

You'll need to multiply 0.05 by 100. Since 100 = 1, we are only multiplying by 1 and not changing the value of our number.

0.05 × 100 = 5

5/100 is 5 over 100 and means 5 per 100. 5 "per 100" means 5 "percent" or 5%

Therefore, 0.05 = 5%
