Convert Percentage into Decimal

Percentage to Fraction Percentage to Decimal Percentage Increase Percentage Decrease

Explanation
To convert a Percentage into Decimal , simply put a decimal on the left side of ten's digit of the given number.

Note = If there is no digit on the left side of the decimal, we put Zero there; for better understanding.

e.g. 25 %
In the given number the ten's digit is 2, so put a decimal on it's left side and we get:
= .25
Now, we can see that there if no digit before the decimal, so we put Zero and we get:
= 0.25

Following are some example more about Conversion of Percentages into Decimals.

Example = 1 Convert the following percentages into Decimals.
      10 %, 35 %, 87 %, 66 %.
Answer = Conversion of Percentages into Decimals is as:
10 %    = 0.10

70 %     = 0.70
150 %    = 1.50
95 %     = 0.95

Example = 3 Convert the following percentages into Decimals.
      123 %, 401 %, 20 %, 391 %.
Answer = Conversion of Percentages into Decimals is as:
