Per cent means per hundred.In the case of decimals,it is very easy to do.First of all,convert it into fraction and then multiply the fraction by 100.and you get the percentage
4.61=461/100=(461/100)X100
=461%

Since 1 = 100%
so 4 = 400%
s0 4.61= 461%

I just finished teaching this unit. Okay, "percent" means out of 100. If you have a number that is greater than one, it will be greater than 100%.

2 = 200%
3 = 300%
What do you think 4 would be?

Now, deal with what's behind the decimal point. Hopefully your teacher has beat into your brain that "point 61" is really "sixty-one hundredths". Another way to think of this is "sixty-one OUT OF 100", or 61%.

So, put it all together. You know that 4 equals ___% and .61 equals ___%. Put them together and you have _____%.
