Question

Express 0.31 as a percent.

Answer 1

31%

Explanation:

To change 0.31 into a percent, you must move the decimal to the right two times.

When we move the decimal in 0.31, it will look like this:

03.1

Now, if we move the decimal again, it will look like this but will be equivalent to 31%:

031. = 31%

Another step-by-step explanation:

You can also write 0.31 as a fraction which is:

31/100 = 31%

It will still be equal to 31%.

Therefore, 0.31 as a percent is equal to 31%.

Hope this helps!
