To use the Percent to Decimal Conversion Calculator, enter a percent and then tab or click out. The answer will automatically display.
Converting a percent to decimal is so easy that you don’t need a calculator to do it, although the one here certainly will. To perform the conversion, just move the decimal point 2 places to the left and remove the percent (%) sign. Math doesn’t get any simpler than that.
Example: To change 75.6% to a decimal, shift the decimal two places left, remove the percent sign and you get the answer of 0.756.
The other method is to take the percent total, divide it by 100 and, of course, remove the percent sign.
Example: Using 75.6% again, the conversion of 0.756 is found by dividing 75.6 by 100 (75.6/100).
