To change a decimal to a percentage, you multiply the decimal by 100. An easy way to do this is to move the decimal point two places to the right and add a percent sign (%).
Here is the step-by-step solution for each problem:
1.
0.02: Move the decimal point two places to the right (0.02 → 0.2 → 2).
* Result:
2%
2.
0.3: Move the decimal point two places to the right. You need to add a zero as a placeholder (0.3 → 3 → 30).
* Result:
30%
3.
0.8: Move the decimal point two places to the right. Add a zero as a placeholder (0.8 → 8 → 80).
* Result:
80%
4.
0.07: Move the decimal point two places to the right (0.07 → 0.7 → 7).
* Result:
7%
5.
0.025: Move the decimal point two places to the right (0.025 → 0.25 → 2.5).
* Result:
2.5%
6.
0.9: Move the decimal point two places to the right. Add a zero as a placeholder (0.9 → 9 → 90).
* Result:
90%
7.
0.75: Move the decimal point two places to the right (0.75 → 7.5 → 75).
* Result:
75%
8.
0.38: Move the decimal point two places to the right (0.38 → 3.8 → 38).
* Result:
38%
Final Answer:
1. 2%
