How do you write eight percent ? is it .08 or .8 ?

8% = 8 / 100 = 0.08

100 __10__1__1/10__1/100
__________0___8--------------->0.8
__________0___0____8-------->0.08

0.8 = 8 / 10
0.08 = 8 / 100

8% would be written as .08.

Think of it like this... 100% is one whole, complete thing, so 1. Therefore, .8 would be 80% and .5, or half, would be 50%

.08 means you get a DUI, .8 means you get a toe tag.

.08 is 8 percent. .8 is 80 percent

Wow I couldn't resist. First off, Jimmy, priceless answer, one of the best. And second, I would only give credit to the second answerer. He actually gave the answer the person wanted. Everyone else explained it using multiplication, examples, scenarios, geez.

You either divide by 100 or move the decimal point two places to the left. They are the same thing.

8.00 moved two places to the left is .08, the correct answer.

0.08
= 0.08 x 100%
= 8%

0.8
= 0.8 x 100%
= 80%

Therefore, we write 0.08 as eight percent.
