To convert between percent and a decimal, we just divide the number by $100$ $100$ , i.e. $a % = \frac{a}{100}$ $a%=a/100$ .

So here,

$71 % = \frac{71}{100}$ $71%=71/100$

$= 0.71$ $=0.71$

To convert a percentage to a decimal, simply omit the percentage sign and place a decimal two places back.

$80 % = 0.8, 35 % = 0.35, 4 % = 0.04$ $80%=0.8, 35%=0.35, 4%=0.04$ , etc.
