Question
Chapter 6, Problem 1ECP
To determine
To convert: The given decimal number into percent.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1ECP
The given decimal number can be converted as 96%.
Explanation of Solution
Procedure used:
“Converting decimals to percents:
Step 1: Move the decimal point two places to the right. That is multiply by 100. If necessary, add zeros. This rule is also used for whole numbers and mixed decimals.
Step 2: Add a percent symbol at the end of the number.”
Calculation:
The given decimal number is 0.96.
Move the decimal point to two places from the right of 0.96 as 96.
Add the percent symbol as 96%.
Thus, the given decimal number can be converted as 96%.

- (b) In various places in this module, data on the silver content of coins minted in the reign of the twelfth-century Byzantine king Manuel I Comnenus have been considered. The full dataset is in the Minitab file coins.mwx. The dataset includes, among others, the values of the silver content of nine coins from the first coinage (variable Coin1) and seven from the fourth coinage (variable Coin4) which was produced a number of years later. (For the purposes of this question, you can ignore the variables Coin2 and Coin3.) In particular, in Activity 8 and Exercise 2 of Computer Book B, it was argued that the silver contents in both the first and the fourth coinages can be assumed to be normally distributed. The question of interest is whether there were differences in the silver content of coins minted early and late in Manuel’s reign.
