Percentages - from decimals
If we remember that 0.1 is 10% then any single figure decimal is easy:
0.6 = 60%
For two figure values we can change them immediately into percentages:
0.63 = 63%
Three or more figure decimals need two digits and the rest after a decimal point:
0.375 = 37.5%
0.12345 = 12.345%
Values larger than one just need the necessary number of hundreds:
1.35 = 135%
