Question

How do you convert 0.26 into a percent and fraction?

Answer 1

Percent : 26%

Fraction : $\frac{13}{50}$

Explanation:

To go from decimal to percent, you need to multiply the number by 100, and vice-versa for percent to decimal.

Therefore, $0.26\times 100=26$%

0.26 as percent is 26%

As a fraction, we know that the decimal is twenty-six hundredth. An alternative way to write 0.26 is $\frac{26}{100}$. Simplify this fraction to get $\frac{13}{50}$.
