Sophie Cobb · Answer 2

0.16 (repeating sing over 6) is a decimal number. It represents the running backs among the MVP.

1) It can be converted into its percentage form by multiplying it with 100%.

0.1666 x 100% = 16.66% of the MVP are running backs.

2) 1 - 0.1666 = 0.8334 is the decimal number for MVPs who were not running backs.

Its fraction form is 0.8334/1.000 or 83.34% of the MVPs were not running backs.
