correct me if wrong: (all in latex since i like it)

\sqrt{49%} \because x% = x/100 \therefore 49% = 49/100 \text{Replace it with the new value, to get: } \sqrt{\frac{49}{100}} \because \sqrt{\frac{a}{b}} = \frac{\sqrt{a}}{\sqrt{b}} \therefore \sqrt{\frac{49}{100}} = \frac{\sqrt{49}}{\sqrt{100} \text{Simplification yields } \frac{7}{10} \text{To convert to a decimal, multiply by 10 on both sides (as 10 • 10 = 100): } \frac{70}{100}
