  • The largest insect is the Giant Walking Stick, which can be as much as 254,000% the size of the smallest insect, the fairyfly, a member of the wasp family. Conversely, the fairyfly measures a mere 0.03937% the size of the largest Giant Walking Stick. How could you write these percents as decimals?
    ::最大的昆虫是巨型漫步棍,它可以比最小的昆虫小到254000 % , 仙女, 黄蜂家族的成员。相反,仙子的大小只比最大的巨型漫步棍小到0.039337 % 。 您如何将这些百分比写成小数?

    In this concept, you will learn how to write percents that are less than one and more than 100 as decimals.
    ::在此概念中, 您将学习如何写入小数位数小于一个且超过100的百分位数 。

    Writing Small and Large Percents as Decimals
    ::将小和大百分比写入十进制

    Sometimes, you will have a percent that is part of one whole. Such percents will be very tiny.
    ::有时候,你会得到一个整体的一部分。这样的百分比会非常小。

    How would you write the percent 0.5% as a decimal?
    ::你如何将0.5%的百分率写成小数点?

    This is another way of saying one-half of a percent, or  1 % ÷ 2 . It is therefore smaller than one percent.
    ::这是另一种说法,即 一半或1% 或2%。因此,它小于1%。

    You can also have a percent that is greater than one hundred. Such percents are very large—so large, in fact, that they are more than one whole.
    ::您也可以拥有超过100%的百分率。这些百分率非常大 — — 事实上非常大,以至于它们不止是一个整体。

    300% is one of those percents.
    ::300%是其中之一。

    This percent is three times 100 percent, or three wholes.
    ::这百分之三是百分之三的三倍, 或三整。

    Let’s look at changing percents like these to decimals.
    ::让我们看看这些百分比变化到小数点。

    When converting percents between 1% and 100% to decimals, you:
    ::当1%至100%之间的百分比转换到小数点时,您:

    1. Drop the % sign.
      ::放弃% 符号 。
    2. Move the  decimal point  two places to the left. Use  zero  placeholders as needed.
      ::将小数点 2 位移到左边。必要时使用零占位符。

    Now let’s apply these steps to larger and smaller percents.
    ::现在让我们把这些步骤应用到更大和较小的百分比上。

    Let’s try an example.
    ::让我们以身作则。

    Write 0.5% as a decimal. First, drop the percent sign.
    ::将0.5%写为小数点,首先,降低百分数符号。

    0.5  

    Next, move the decimal point two places to the left.
    ::下一步,将小数点 2 位移到左边。

    0.005

    The answer is 0.5% written as a decimal is 0.005.
    ::答案是0.5%,小数点后写为0.005。

    Let’s look at another example.
    ::让我们再看看另一个例子。

    Write 350% as a decimal. First, drop the percent sign. 350
    ::将350%写为小数小数。 首先,降低百分数符号 350

    Next, move the decimal point two places to the left.
    ::下一步,将小数点 2 位移到左边。

    3.5

    The answer is 350% written as a decimal is 3.5.
    ::回答是350%,小数小数是3.5。

    Examples
    ::实例

    Example 1
    ::例1

    Earlier, you were given a problem about the Giant Walking Stick.
    ::早些时候,有人给了你一个关于巨人漫步棒的问题

    This insect is up to 254,000% the size of the fairyfly. Conversely, the fairyfly is 0.03937% the size of the largest Giant Walking Stick. How could you write these percents as decimals?
    ::这只昆虫的大小高达仙子的254,000 % 。 相反,仙子的大小是巨人漫步棒的0.03937%。 您如何将这些百分数写成小数?

    Let’s rewrite 254,000% first. First, drop the percent sign.
    ::让我们先重写254,000 % 。 首先, 降低百分比符号 。

    254 , 000

    Next, move the decimal point two places to the left.
    ::下一步,将小数点 2 位移到左边。

    2 , 540.00

    You can drop the zeroes after the decimal point because they have no value.
    ::您可以在小数点后降低零,因为零没有值。

    The answer is 254,000% written as a decimal is 2,540.
    ::回答是小数点后写为254,000%,小数点后写为2,540。

    Now, let’s rewrite 0.03937% as a decimal. First, drop the percent sign.
    ::现在,让我们将0.03937%重写为小数点。 首先,降低百分数符号。

    0.03937  

    Next, move the decimal point two places to the left.
    ::下一步,将小数点 2 位移到左边。

    0.0003937

    The answer is 0.03937% written as a decimal is 0.0003937.
    ::回答是 0.03937% 以小数小数写为 0.003937。
