Question

  1. generalize how do you use the digits in a hundredths decimal to write a percent?

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A hundredths decimal has two digits after the decimal point. To convert it to a percent, you take the two digits that form the hundredths value (the digits after the decimal point, or the whole number if the decimal is 0.xx) and attach a percent symbol, since 1 hundredth equals 1%. For example, 0.25 (25 hundredths) becomes 25%, and 0.07 (7 hundredths) becomes 7%.

Answer:

To convert a hundredths decimal to a percent, take the two digits representing the hundredths place (the digits after the decimal point) and write them followed by the % symbol. This works because one hundredth ($\frac{1}{100}$) is equivalent to 1%.
