#0.18=18/100=18%#

To convert a decimal into a fraction you can write each digit as a fraction and then add the given fractions:

#0.18=1/10+8/100=10/100+8/100=18/100#

The consecutive digits right from the decimal point are:

tenths (#1/10#)

hundredths (#1/100#)

thousandths (#1/1000#)

and so on.

If you have a fraction you need to multiply it by #100%# to convert it to percentage:

#18/100*100%=18%#
