Here’s the golden rule: multiply your number by 100, then slap a “%” sign on the end. That’s it. Seriously.
Think of it like currency conversion. You have a certain amount in “decimal dollars,” and you need to exchange it into “percent cents.” Multiplying by 100 is the exchange rate.
So, if your number is 0.25, you do 0.25 × 100 = 25%. See? You’ve got a quarter of a pie, and now you know it’s 25% of the whole thing. Easy as breathing.
