Percentages, Fractions, and Decimal Values

Sometimes it is advantageous to express a value in round numbers. To round to a particular place, look at the digit immediately to the right of the one you want to round to, in this case, the tenths place. If that digit is 4, 3, 2, 1 or 0, zero it and everything to the right of it out. If that digit is 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9, increase your target digit by one and zero everything to the right of it out. If your target digit is 9, it will become a zero and increase the digit to the left of it by one.

Decimals that are less than 0.5 round to zero.

0.14 is already in DECIMAL form .

Four thirds (4/3) is the same as four divided by three. Four divided by three = 1.33 . . .

Neither number as given is a decimal.

030 = 30

NB The prefix zero in the first ny=umber is trivial.

NNB You need to place in the decimal point, in order to give a decimal value.

0.30 = 0.3 ; in word form ' Zero point three'.

NB Thre suffix zero is trivial and can be ignored.

1.3 = one and three tenths.

No such percentage as 10000 % ..

100 % is totality.

Any percentage value greater than '100' is meaningless. !!!! You mean how many times greater.

Please rephrase the question.

As questioned, there are two possible answers.

#1 ; (-7 -3) / 2 = -10/2 = -5

#2 ; -7 - 3/2 = -7 - 11/2 = -8 1/2

NB Note the use of brackets to clarify the question.

Sixty percent can be expressed as a ratio in three forms: as a fraction, it is 60/100, which simplifies to 3/5. In decimal form, it is 0.6. As a ratio, it can also be represented as 3:5.

0.044 = 0.044/1.000

Cancel down the decimal point

0044/1000

Drop the prefix zeroes.

44/1000

Cancel down by '4'

11/250 The simplest form !!!!!

3.88888

As a terminating decimal it is 3 88888/100000 = 3 22222/50000 = 3 11111/25000

However, I think you mean a decimal recurring to infinity, in which case it should be written as 3.88888.... . Note the three or more dots after the last digits. This indicates to mathematicians, that the decimal recurs to infinity.

Since 3,88888..... is a rational number, it can be converted to a fraction.

Hence

Let

P = 3.88888.....

10P = 38,88888,,,,

Subtract

9P = 35 ( Note the recurring decimals subtract to zero).

Hence

P = 35/9

P = 3 8/9 The answer!!!!!!

18% of 150.00 = 150.00*18/100 = 27.00

2 3/8

To convert to Improper Fraction.

{[2 X 8] + 3} / 8

{16 + 3} / 8

19/8 The answer!!!!!

4000000 in decimal notation is 4.0 x 10 ^ 6.

500.81 is larger than 0.581.Here is a quick breakdown of why:Whole number comparison: Look at the digits to the left of the decimal point.500.81 has a whole number value of 500.0.581 has a whole number value of 0.Since 500 is greater than 0, 500.81 is the larger number.

150% is a nonsense!!!! 100% is totality.

However, to convert

150/100 = 1.5 . So you mean increase by 1.5 times or 'one and a half times'.

YES!!! People use percentages greater than 100%, but it is erroneous. It is done yo impress with 'big' numbers.

3.56 is a fraction. It is a fraction in decimal form rather than in the form of a ratio. However, that does not stop it being a fraction. And, being a decimal, there is no simpler form. Its rational equivalent is 356/100 which can be simplified to 3 14/25.

43500 is 15 percent of 290000.

(25/500) x 100 =>

(25/5() x 1

(5/1) X 1 = 5% The answer!!!!!

To find a percentage of a number, change the percent to a decimal by dividing by 100. Then, multiply that decimal by the total number

equivalent answer as 40%

assuming only the 7 is repeating

i.e. not 21.7217217217

then 21.77777777 = 196/9

2/5 is the simplest way to write it.

-2.42 is a fraction. It is a fraction in decimal form rather than in the form of a ratio. However, that does not stop it being a fraction. Its rational equivalent is -242/100 which can be simplified.
