Explanation:

Step1: Recall percentage to decimal conversion

To convert a percentage to a decimal, we divide the percentage value by 100. So for 56%, we do \(56\div100\).

Step2: Perform the division

\(56\div100 = 0.56\) (dividing by 100 moves the decimal point two places to the left in the number 56, so 56 becomes 0.56).

Answer:

B. 0.56 (assuming the purple option with 0.56 is option B, as per the visual with the purple square labeled 0.56 being the correct conversion of 56% to decimal)
