    Question

    Find 170 % as a decimal.

    1. 1.7    
    2. 0.17    
    3. 17    
    4. 0.017    

    hintHint:

    Percentage is a fraction or a ratio in which the value of whole is always 100. For example, if Sam scored 30% marks in his math test, it means that he scored 30 marks out of 100. It is written as 30/100 in the fraction form and 30:100 in terms of ratio.

    The correct answer is: 1.7

      1 percent sign space equals space 1 over 100 space equals space 0.01
      170 percent sign equals fraction numerator 170 over denominator 100 end fraction = 1.7
      Converting in decimal = 1.7
