6. Additional Example 1: Writing Decimals as Percents
Write 0.7 as a percent.
Method 1: Use pencil and paper. 7 10 70
100
Write the decimal as a fraction with a denominator of 100.
0.7 = =
Write the numerator with a percent sign.
= 70%
Method 2: Use mental math.
Move the decimal point two places to the right and add a percent sign.
0.70 =
70.0%
= 70%

7. Check It Out! Example 1
Write 0.3 as a percent.
Method 1: Use pencil and paper. 3 10 30
100
Write the decimal as a fraction with a denominator of 100.
0.3 = =
Write the numerator with a percent sign.
= 30%
Method 2: Use mental math.
0.30 =
30.0%
Move the decimal point two places to the right and add a percent sign.
= 30%

8. Additional Example 2: Writing Fractions as Decimals5 8
Write as a percent.
Method 1: Use pencil and paper. 5 8
= 5 ÷ 8
Use division to write the fraction as a decimal.
= 0.625
= 62.5%
Write the decimal as a percent.

9. Additional Example 2 Continued5 8
Write as a percent.
Method 2: Use mental math.
5   12.5
Write an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 100. =
Write the numerator with a percent sign.
= 62.5%

10. Check It Out! Example 2 3 5
Write as a percent.
Method 1: Use pencil and paper. 3 5
= 3 ÷ 5
Use division to write the fraction as a decimal.
= 0.60
= 60%
Write the decimal as a percent.

11. Check It Out! Example 2 Continued3 5
Write as a percent.
Method 2: Use mental math.
3   20
Write an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 100. =
Write the numerator with a percent sign.
= 60%

12. Additional Example 3: Data Analysis Application
If 27 out of 50 people surveyed have the newspaper delivered to their home, what percent of these people have the newspaper delivered to their home? 27 50
Set up a ratio.
27 out of 50 =
Use division to write the fraction as a decimal.
= 27 ÷ 50
= 0.54
= 54%
Write the decimal as a percent.
54% of the people have the newspaper delivered to their home.

13. Additional Example 3 Continued
Check Use estimation to check that the answer is reasonable. 27 50 ≈
, or 50% 25 1 2
Because 50% is close to 54%, the answer is reasonable.

14. Write the numerator with a percent sign. = 22%
Check It Out! Example 3
If 11 out of 50 students surveyed have blue backpacks, what percent of the students have blue backpacks? 11 50 22
100 =
11 out of 50 =
Write the numerator with a percent sign.
= 22%
22% of the students have blue backpacks.

15. Check It Out! Example 3 Continued
Check Use estimation to check that the answer is reasonable. 22
100 ≈
, or 20% 20 1 5
Because 20% is close to 22%, the answer is reasonable.
