First convert 5% to a decimal number. To do this, simply divide 5 by 100\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "5%=\"5%2F100=0.05\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So 5% converts to the decimal number 0.05\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now multiply 0.05 by 10 (remember the \"of\" means multiply)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.05*10=0.5\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So 5% of 10 is 0.5
\n" ); document.write( "
