What Are Percents?
Percents are numbers per 100. So whatever percent you have, that is the number out of 100 you have. Make sense? If not, maybe the next part will help.
How Do You Transform Them?
You can transform them into fractions and decimals. You transform them into fractions by taking the percent and putting it on top of 100. Example: 40%= 40/100.
You can transform them into decimals by dividing the number of percentage by 100. Example: 40%= 40.00 divided by 100=0.40.Try it in the Try It Out section.
