Percents Less Than One Percent
1. Percents Less Than 1%
Be careful with percents less than 1%.
Handle them the same way (move exactly
2 places).
Example: 0.3% = 0.003
2. Recall: To change a percent to a
decimal, move the decimal point two places
to the left (because percent means divided by
100)
Change each to a decimal:
1. .1%
.1% .001
2. .08%
.08% .0008
3. 0.24%
0.24% .0024
3. Recall: To change a percent to a fraction,
change to a decimal and then read it to make
it a fraction.
Change each to a fraction:
1. .1% 1
.1% .001
1000
2. .08% 8 2 1
.08% .0008
10000 2500 1250
3. 0.24%
24 3
0.24% .0024
10000 1250
4. Examples:
1. If the price of a share of RST .13
stock started the day at .002443 0.24%
53.20
$53.20 and went up $0.13,
what is the percent increase?
2. If the human body had 10 pints of blood and .08% of
the blood is alcohol (the legal level of
intoxication), how much alcohol is in the blood?
.0008*10 .008 pints
2. If Joseph has $2,000,000 invested and 0.5% is
invested in Dell Computers, how much is invested in
Dell Computers?
.5% of 2,000,000 .005 2,000,000 $10,000
