1 <p>This is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we need to understand percentages and decimals. A percentage represents a part of 100. When converting a percentage to a decimal, the "%" symbol is removed, and the number is divided by 100. A decimal is a way to represent a number that is not whole, using a decimal point (.) to separate the whole part from the fractional part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole number, and those to the right represent the fractional part.</p>
