Question

Fill in the blank :

$3.5$ as per cent $=$ …………….. .

Answer 1

It is given that,

$3.5$ as per cent $=$ …………….. .

To convert fraction to percentage , $3.5$ is multiplied to $100\%$.

So, $3.5\times 100\%$

Note : If a decimal number is multiplied by $100$, then the decimal point is moved from left to right by $2$ places.

Zero should be included after the decimal places in order to get two places after the decimal point.

Therefore, $3.5\times 100\%$ is written as

$3.50\times 100\%$ $=$ $350\%$

Hence, the answer for the given blank is $350\%$.
