The percentage is the numerator.  100 is the denominator.  Reduce if you can.
Example 86% = 86/100 = 43/50  Decimally  86% is .86
Example 23% = 23/100  Decimally 23% is .23
Example 10% = 10/100 = 1/10   Decimally 10% is .10   (or .1)
  
A percentage is based on 100 parts equalling 1.  
1.00 is the same as 1.  This is called 100%
.10 is 10 of the 100 parts needed to make 1.  This is called 10%
.01 is 1 of the 100 parts needed to make 1.  This is called 1%
