69% as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to understand percentages and decimals. A percentage represents a part of a whole out of 100. It is a way to express a number as a fraction of 100. A decimal is a way to represent numbers that are not whole, using a decimal point (.) to separate the whole part from the fractional part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole, and those to the right represent the fractional part.

What is 69% as a decimal?

69% as a DecimalAnswer

 

69% in decimals can be written as 0.69. It is a terminating decimal, as it does not repeat any digit after the decimal point.

 

Explanation

 

To convert 69% into a decimal, we will use the conversion method. Since a percentage is out of 100, we can convert 69% to a decimal by dividing 69 by 100. Let's see the step-by-step breakdown of the process:

 

Step 1: Express 69% as a fraction: 69/100.

 

Step 2: Perform the division by moving the decimal point two places to the left, which gives us 0.69.

 

The conversion process ends here, as 0.69 is a terminating decimal.
