#(0.072/1)*(1000/1000)# = #72/1000# simplify = #9/125# percentage multiply by 100:
#(9/125)100#= #7.2%#

Explanation:

0.072 is the same as itself over 1, therefore you multiply both numerator and denominator by 1000 to make it easier to work with/. then simplify. when changing it to percentage you only multiply what you found by 100 then finally get your answers.
