OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

anything else

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Actually, yeah, @RoboMonkey45 what is 3/8 written as a percent?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a trick for percent is divide those two and then move it over two didgits so lets say we had 0.0612 we would move the decimal over two so it would be 6.12%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now i might be wrong but its something along those lines

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To convert a decimal to a percent, multiply the decimal by 100, then add on the % symbol. An easy way to multiply a decimal by 100 is to move the decimal point two places to the right. This is done in the example below. Each decimal in Example 1 went out two places to the right of the decimal point.
