Question

How do you write 4% as a decimal?

Answer 1

`0.04`

Explanation:

The symbol % is the equivalent of `xx1/100` so we have:
`4% -> 4xx1/100=4/100`

Decimal structure is the same as:

`"units count"+("count")/10+("count")/100+("count")/1000+ ....`

We have

`"units count"+("count")/10+("count")/100+("count")/1000+ ....`

`color(white)("ddd")0color(white)("ddd.d")+color(white)("d")0/10color(white)("..")+color(white)("d")4/100color(white)("d")+0/1000+......`

So the decimal is: `0.04`
