<p>It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to learn percentages and decimals. A percentage represents a part out of 100. It has a numerator (the number) here, 2, representing how many parts out of 100. The denominator is implicit as percentages are out of 100. A decimal is a way to represent the number that is not whole, using a (.) or a decimal to separate the whole part from the fraction part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole, and those to the right represent the fractional part.</p>
