THANKS
try moving the decimal point

No. You need to multiply 3.64 by 100 to get the percent.
If a population increased by 3.64 times, it has increased 364 percent.
Ms. Sue is correct:
16 divided by 25 is .64
Add on that 3 and you have 3.64
In order to make a number a percent, you multiply a number by 100
To convert a fraction to a percent, you can follow the steps below:
1. Divide the numerator (the number on top) by the denominator (the number on the bottom) to get the decimal equivalent. In this case, divide 16 by 25.
16 ÷ 25 = 0.64
2. Multiply the decimal by 100 to convert it to a percent.
0.64 × 100 = 64%
Therefore, 3 16/25 can be expressed as 64%.
Based on the given options, none of them match the calculated answer of 64%. Therefore, option A (3.64%) is incorrect.
To find the correct answer, we need to divide 16 by 25 to get the decimal equivalent of the fraction, which is 0.64. Then, we multiply this decimal by 100 to convert it to a percent, resulting in 64%. Therefore, the correct answer is not listed among the given options.
