136% as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

This is a simple question on converting percentages to decimals. Firstly, we need to understand percentages and decimals. A percentage represents a part out of 100. It shows how many parts there are per 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. Numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole, while numbers to the right represent the fractional part.
