119% as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

This is a straightforward question about converting a percentage to a decimal. To understand this, we must first grasp the concept of percentages and decimals. A percentage is a part per hundred, and converting it to a decimal involves dividing by 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.
