Decimals and percentages are two ways of expressing same thing. To convert decimals to percentages or vice versa, just move the decimal 2 places to the right or left/multiply or divide by 100.

\n

Example: Convert 0.35 to a percentage

\n

Move the decimal point two places to the right: 0.35 $\\rightarrow$ 3.5 $\\rightarrow$ 35.

\n

Add a % sign: 35%

\n

Answer 0.35 = 35%
