(ii) 1.2 = 1.2 × 100 % = 120 %
(iii) 7.1 = 7.1 × 100 % = 710 %
(iv) 10.1 = 10.1 ×
100 % = 1010 %
(v) 31.3 = 31.3 × 100 % = 3130 %
(vi) 123.7 = 123.7 × 100 % = 12370 %
(vii) 101.9 = 101.9 × 100 % = 10190 %

(iv) 0.51 = 0.51 × 100 % = 51 %
(v) 13.01 = 13.01 × 100 % = 1301 %
(vi) 201.17 = 201.17 × 100 % = 20117 %
(vii) 100.11 = 100.11 × 100 % = 10011 %

(iii) 0.001 = 0.001 × 100 % = 0.1 %
(iv) 0.003 = 0.003 × 100% = 0.3 %
(v) 0.107 = 0.107 × 100 % = 10.7 %
(vi) 1.037 = 1.037 × 100 % = 103.7 %
