but then again that still doesnt sound right if you subtract 0.01 with 0.273 you dont get 0.727 you get 0.263 so what im saying is WTF IS somthing over 1, 1000's is that smaller than somthing over 1, 100's or in other terms is 1/100 of,1 a whole # bigger than 1/1000 if you add .273 + .727 on a caculator you get a whole 1....im going to have a headache

[rockinthestandards]

.273 is equal to 27.3 percent. To convert a decimal to a percent, simply multiply the decimal by 100 or move the decimal point two spots to the right. I hope this helps.

I have a question how would you solve this type of problem:

40=___% of 50

can you make a video of this or tell me how to do it, I have it on a aprentiship test that i have coming up and I wont be able to use a calculator

[dimebag5462]

I got to understand what .273 really is you cannot obviously have 273 % (doesnt make since) im only guessing by what you said by 273/1000 wich would mean that it is .727/1000 away from .1 or in other words 1 %...
