Instructions: Work through each activity to explore how percentages, fractions and decimals represent the same amount. Write your answers in the boxes and show a calculation where it helps. Remember: per cent means ‘per hundred’, so 35% is 35 out of 100.

1

What Does Per Cent Mean?

Use the fact that per cent means ‘per hundred’. Write each percentage as a fraction with a denominator of 100, then state how many parts out of 100 it represents.

1. 7% = ___/100, so it is ___ parts out of 100.

2. 34% = ___/100, so it is ___ parts out of 100.

3. 60% = ___/100, so it is ___ parts out of 100.

4. 92% = ___/100, so it is ___ parts out of 100.

2

Percentages, Fractions and Decimals

Complete each conversion. Write the percentage as a fraction out of 100 and as a decimal. The decimal shows the number of hundredths written in decimal form.

1. 18% = ___/100 =

2. 45% = ___/100 =

3. 73% = ___/100 =

4. 6% = ___/100 =

5. 99% = ___/100 =

3

Equivalent Fractions and Percentages

Write each fraction as a percentage and a decimal. You may use an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 100 to help you.

1. 1/2 = ___% =

2. 1/4 = ___% =

3. 1/5 = ___% =

4. 2/5 = ___% =

5. 4/5 = ___% =

Match the Equivalent Forms

Draw a line from each percentage on the left to its equivalent fraction on the right. The fraction choices are in a different order, so check each one carefully.

Choose the Correct Equivalent

Circle the correct answer for each question. Think about how many parts out of 100 the fraction represents, or convert the decimal into hundredths.

1. Which decimal is equal to 1/2?

2. Which percentage is equal to 1/4?

3. Which decimal is equal to 2/5?

4. Which fraction out of 100 is equal to 80%?

6

Percentages in Context

Read each statement and convert the percentage into the requested form. Remember that a percentage tells you how many parts there are in every 100 equal parts.

1. A test has 100 questions. Sam gets 35% correct. What fraction out of 100 is correct?

2. A jar is 50% full. Write 50% as a decimal.

3. A class has completed 1/5 of a project. What percentage of the project is complete?

4. A ribbon is divided into 100 equal sections. 40 sections are blue. Write the blue part as a percentage and as a decimal.
