OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

so first, let's talk about fractions to decimals then to percents. If you have \(\frac{1}{10}\), what is that as a decimal?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It would be 0.1

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

right, so now. What percent is that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

100?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I meant 10 :P

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

ok, that let's me know where we need to cover so, for decimal to percent think of tring to make it add up to 1

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

so if we have .31 that is literaly 31% of 100 all you do is multiply it by 100

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

the easiest way to convert any number to a percent, is just to make it a decimal first using division

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

(yes it is ten)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
