Converting percentages to decimals is a straightforward process that involves understanding percentages and decimals. A percentage represents a part of a hundred. It has a single part, the number before the percentage sign, which shows how many parts out of a hundred. 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.

Answer

 

64% as a decimal is written as 0.64.

 

Explanation

 

To convert 64% to a decimal, we divide the percentage by 100. This is because a percentage is a number out of 100.

 

Step 1: Start with the percentage, which is 64.

 

Step 2: Divide 64 by 100, because percent means "per hundred."

 

Step 3: 64 ÷ 100 = 0.64. This division gives us the decimal form.

 

Therefore, 64% is equal to 0.64 in decimal form.
