Decimal
First, change the mixed fraction to improper, you get
$-13/4$
Now, you need to change it to 10,100,1000,etc.
It can be changed to 10 but doing it with 100 will make it easier for you to understand
$(-13xx25)/(4xx25)$
$-325/100$
It is easy to make this decimal
$-3.25$
Percentage
When we write %, we mean $/100$ , so $x%$ means $x/100$
In the upper case, while making it a decimal, we made it a fraction with a denominator 100, that means it is the perent
$-325/100=-325%$
