300% 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 out of 100. It is a way to express a number as a fraction of 100. A decimal is a way to represent a number that is not whole, using a dot (.) 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.

Answer

 

300% as a decimal can be written as 3.0. The conversion involves dividing the percentage by 100, which moves the decimal point two places to the left.

 

Explanation

 

To convert 300% to a decimal, we divide by 100. This is because a percentage is a number expressed as a fraction of 100.
