54% as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to learn percentages and decimals. A percentage represents a part from a whole out of 100. To convert a percentage to a decimal, we divide by 100. A decimal is a way to represent a number that is not whole, using a (.) 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.
