Question

Please ensure 'Percentage' is entered with 2 digits after decimal point.

Answer 1

Answer:

Percentage of Marks(*)

(Percentage of Marks in 2 decimals places e.g (70.00))

Answer 2

The Percentage is entered with 2 digits after the decimal point is done after rounding the decimal to two places.

• The percentage is converted into decimals by dividing it by 100. For example,

                                      75% = 75/100 = 0.75

• The decimal is converted into a percentage by multiplying by 100. For example,

                                 0.75 = 0.75 × 100 = 75%

• To increase understanding and use in statistics and calculations decimal values are frequently rounded off.
• Rounding a decimal number to the hundredth place, which is the next number after the decimal point, is equivalent to rounding it to two decimal places.

• For example, 1.83614520 can be rounded to two decimal places as 1.84.
• To round to two decimal places first identifying the thousandth place is important.
• The hundredth-place digit will increase by one if the thousandth-place digit is greater than or equal to 5. Likewise, the hundredth place digit will not change if the thousandth place digit is less than 5.
• Hence,  1.83614520 is written as 1.84.
• For instance, 99.99% = 99.99/100 = 0.9999
• This can be rounded off to the nearest thousandth and written as 1.000.
