Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

It is a way to express a number as a fraction of 100, using the symbol %. A decimal is a way to represent a number that is not whole, using a (.) or a decimal to separate the whole part from the fraction part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole, and those to the right represent the fractional part.
