Answer 8

not quite...
whatever the percentage is, divide by 100 to get it as a decimal. It doesn't matter if it's a decimal already.

i.e.
54%=54/100=0.54
6%=6/100=0.06
0.25%=0.25/100=0.0025
0.007%=0.007/100=0.00007

so what is
0.044%=?

Answer 12

idk how it seems stupid

Answer 13

Here's the answer. I only give one away for free, just so you know, so try to figure out what you did wrong because next time I won't give it away so easily\[0.044\%=\frac{0.044}{100}=0.00044\]just divide the percentage by 100... a job for your calculator if that gives you trouble...

Answer 15

to divide a decimal by 100 move the decimal point two places to the LEFT - if there are no '0's insert them
