180% as a decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

This is a simple question on percentage to decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to understand percentages and decimals. A percentage represents a part out of 100. It is a way to express a number as a fraction of 100. A decimal, on the other hand, 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.
