1. The problem is to express 7% as a fraction and a decimal. 2. Recall that percent means per hundred, so 7% can be written as \(\frac{7}{100}\). 3. The fraction form is \(\frac{7}{100}\). 4. To convert this fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator by the denominator: \(\frac{7}{100} = 0.07\). 5. So, 7% equals \(\frac{7}{100}\) and also equals the decimal 0.07. Final answer: \(7\% = \frac{7}{100} = 0.07\).
