The method that always works is to put a decimal point in if there is not already on in the number in percentage form.
Move the decimal 2 digits to the left. Insert as many zeros as needed to allow you to move the decimal point 2 digits.
1% would become
1.% which would become
01.%
which finally would become
.01

To turn a percent into a decimal just move the decimal over to the right two places. For example 14% means 14/100 which you could also write as .14
Now try the others yourself.

14% = 0.14 (7/50)

12.4% = 0.124 (31/250)

436% = 4.36 (109/25)

0.062% = 0.00062 (31/50000)

Basically, you just have to move the decimal place over 2 spaces when converting percents to decimals.

particularly undemanding yet i will spend it sluggish helping you. ok at the beginning attempt to get each and all the comparable words in one area. have been given it 3(4y-3)-6(y-2) = 12y-9-6y+12 6y+3 therfore y=-3/6 =-0.5 or -a million/2 attractive that's the suited answer 12y-3-12y+4-6y-2= -3+4-2 = -12y+12y+6y -a million = 6y for this reason -a million/6=y -6y+9 y=-9/-6 =9/6

All you have to do is move the decimal over 2 places to the left...in case that helps later.

.14
(.14*100)

.124
(.124*100)

4.36
(4.36*100)

.00062
(.00062*100)

the stuff in parenthesis is how you would take the decimal form and put it back in percentage.
