Change 0.50 from a decimal to a percentage

Question

How can I change 0.50 from a decimal to a percentage?

Answer 1

To change a decimal to a percentage simply move the decimal

point two places to the right and put up the % sign:

 

.50 becomes 50%

 

It works both ways; to change a percentage to a decimal

simply move the decimal two places to the left

 

25% becomes .25 as a decimal
