126% as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

Converting percentages to decimals is a fundamental mathematical skill. A percentage represents a part per hundred. By understanding percentages and decimals, we can easily transition between these forms. 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.
