0.9=9/10=90%0.9=910=90%

Explanation:

A decimal fraction such as ABCD.PQRST.... can be written as

Axx1000+Bxx100+Cxx10+D+P/10+Q/100+R/1000+S/10000+T/100000+.... in fractionor simply

ABCD+P/10+Q/100+R/1000+S/10000+T/100000+.............

or (ABCDPQRST)/(100000)

In percentage it would be (ABCDPQRST)/(100000)×100= (ABCDPQRST)/(1000)=ABCDPQ.RST

As we have one digit in 0.9 immediately to the right of decimal point, it can be written as 9/10.

To convert a fraction into percentage, just multiply it by 100 and percentage sign %. Hence

0.9=9/10=(9/10xx100)%=90%
