Solution Steps

Step 1: Convert 28.5% to a decimal

To convert a percentage to a decimal, divide by 100.

Step 2: Convert 0.4 to a percentage

To convert a decimal to a percentage, multiply by 100.
\[ 0.4 = 0.4 \times 100 = 40\% \]

Final Answer

(a) \(28.5\% = \boxed{0.285}\)
(b) \(0.4 = \boxed{40\%}\)
