7/20 converted to a percentage would be 35%.

Converting it to a decimal would be 0.35.

Explanation:

In order to do this, you would multiply 7/20 by 100%.

7/20(100%)=(700/20)%=35%

Multiplying 7/20 by 100% allows you to be able to use long division -> you only multiply 100 by the numerator (the top number of the fraction).

To convert 7/20 to a decimal, simply divide 7 by 20.
