The fraction 10/100 can be reduced to 1/10, which is easy to picture: imagine ten equal slices of a pizza and taking one slice. That one slice is the same as 10 % of the whole pizza.
Percentages like 10.00% are useful in everyday situations—like discounts, grades, or interest rates—because they let us compare parts of a whole quickly. Seeing the “10 %” label tells you immediately how large the part is relative to 100.
In reports or spreadsheets you’ll often see the percent rounded to two decimal places, giving 10.00%. This keeps numbers tidy and makes them easier to read, especially when many percentages are listed together.
