Yes, prudie's suggestion will also work. There is a direct equivalence between percentages and fractions and decimals, which works in the following way. 10% really just means "10 per 100", or "10 divided by 100".

Jim was so kind to me and didn't make me feel stupid at all, like some that i wont mention again!!. And he explained it in a number of different ways, and guess what i have been practicing and now getting a bit confident ;-)
phleb: I knew, deep down, that you wouldn't be that bothered by people who call you 'stupid'. You might not be the best of the best at maths but you clearly have a strong personality. Re: the practising; good on you!

Sherrard and Jim be friends now please...i have another question later...lol you will be so annoyed with me...;-).

Dizmo, to be fair, most of you were so helpful in your own ways, and helped me build up my confidence over night on percentages general maths etc. This is why i asked on here, although a small clever clog minority would try to put me down, it only upset me because i have been under stress with my mother being in hospital, so was over sensitive yesterday, any other day i would have ignored them. It will not put me off asking on here again, as most of you are wonderful people, and have always been there to support me, no matter what i have asked (even silly things) . xxxx
Morning All,

Phleb has asked a serious question, had a number of very helpful answers and then there has been some wandering off topic. Please can we leave it there?

Let's all be friends again :-)

phleb: Even the 'small clever clog minority' are good people at heart. I think that sometimes we all say things we don't really mean and because we are so proud can't retract such statements. I've never seen any real issue (whilst being on AB since 2010) with anyone who posted on this thread. The small minority like to have heated debates - in a way it is what makes AB. However it isn't nice for the person receiving the 'abuse' especially whilst under stress. My step father is in hospital with leukaemia and they have now told us that he will not be out for Christmas.
Ooops sorry ABAuntie. I didn't see that post until I posted. I probably would of refrained from bringing up yesterday. *Runs Away*
I'm glad to hear that phleb :).

phleb, genuinely sorry to hear about your Mum in Hospital, I wish her all the best!
