Question

How do you write 50% in decimal?

Answer 1

`50% = 0.50= 0.5`

Explanation:

Percents and decimals are different forms of writing the same value.

A fraction with a denominator which is a power of 10 can be written as decimal.

`50% = 50/100 = 0.50 = 0.5`

Hundredths are represented with 2 decimal places.

Or:

`50%= 50/100 = 1/2 = 5/10 = 0.5`
