You can put this solution on YOUR website!
A good thing to remember is that cent means 100,
as in "A century is 100 years"
So, "per cent" means "per 100"
So, think per 100 when you see the % sign
given:
+.09+ % =
+.09%2A%281%2F100%29+
+.0009+
---------
I words, this would be "nine one-hundreds of one percent"
