165% as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

Converting percentages to decimals is a simple process. A percentage represents a number out of 100. To convert a percentage to a decimal, divide by 100. Decimals are 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 number, and those to the right represent the fractional part.
