Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

Converting percentages to decimals is a straightforward process. A percentage represents a part out of 100. To convert a percentage to a decimal, you simply divide by 100. This conversion helps in various mathematical calculations and comparisons. A decimal is a numerical representation that uses the base ten and includes a decimal point to separate the whole part from the fractional part.
