$92% = 92/100 = 0.92$

A decimal is a way of writing fractions which have their denominators as powers of $10$

The placeholders after the decimal point are for:

tenths, hundredths, thousandths and so on.

A fraction with $10$ in the denominator has $1$ decimal place

A fraction with $100$ in the denominator has $2$ decimal places

A fraction with $1000$ in the denominator has $3$ decimal places

$92% = 92/100 = 0.92$
