Question

In a recent survey, 78% of students at Lincoln Middle School said they plan to attend a camp this summer. Write this percent as a decimal

Answer 1

0.78

Explanation:

From the question, we are to represent 78% as a decimal

78% = 78/100

78/100 = 78 * 1/100

78/100 = 78 * 0.01

78/100 = 0.78

hence the percent written as a decimal is 0.78
