Answer 1

Do you know what 30 percent is equal to?

Answer 2

Do you know what 30 percent is equal to?

Answer 3

No

Answer 4

WOndering if it's A

Answer 5

30% = 3/10, so it isn't, A, but this will give you something to base it off of. Let me give you an example.

60% = 6/10
6% = 6/100
0.6% = 6/1,000
0.06% = 6/10,000

When you divide 3 by 10, you get the decimal 0.3
To find the percent, you move that decimal point over two places to the right, and throw on a percentage sign

Answer 6

If that makes any sense

Answer 7

0.003?

Answer 8

i mean it's B, but we didn't exactly move it 2 decimals to the right?

Answer 9

0.3% = 0.003, yes.

Since I told you how to convert a fraction to a percent, you do the exact opposite when turning a percent to a fraction.

Answer 10

Move it two decimals to the left, actually making it 0.3%

Answer 11

Therefore, you move it two places to the left

Answer 16

Yes, If I wanted to convert this to a percent then fraction, like
0.05% IT would become 5/1000?
