Here's the deal: any number can be a fraction, percentage, or decimal. Take three quarters, for example. As a fraction, it's 34. Percentages turn fractions into 100ths, so three quarters is 75%. Decimals use tenths and hundredths - 75 hundredths is 0.75. Easy peasy, right? Once you've got the hang of it, you'll be a pro!
