Draw a line to match each one
Complete the Equivalence Triangles
Complete each line by writing the missing decimal or percentage. Use the fraction as a clue, and check that all three values are equivalent.
1. 1/2 = ___ = 50%
2. 1/4 = 0.25 = ___
3. 3/4 = ___ = 75%
4. 1/5 = 0.2 = ___
5. 3/5 = ___ = 60%
Find the Percentage of an Amount
Use known percentages such as 10%, 5%, 25% and 50% to help you. For example, 15% is 10% plus 5%. Show your method in each box.
1. 10% of £240 =
2. 25% of 360 =
3. 15% of 360 =
4. 40% of 250 =
5. 5% of 480 =
Compare the Percentages
Work out each percentage of an amount, then compare the two results. Write >, < or = in the box between them.
1. 25% of 200 40% of 100
2. 15% of 300 20% of 200
3. 50% of 160 30% of 240
4. 10% of 450 25% of 180
5. 35% of 200 20% of 350
Percentage Shopping Comparisons
Find the saving or amount described by each percentage. Compare the results when asked, and include the correct unit in your answer.
1. A £40 bag is reduced by 25%. How many pounds are taken off the price?
2. A £60 coat is reduced by 15%. How many pounds are taken off the price?

Activity 2: 1. 0.5 ; 2. 25% ; 3. 0.75 ; 4. 20% ; 5. 0.6
Activity 3: 1. £24 ; 2. 90 ; 3. 54 ; 4. 100 ; 5. 24
Activity 4: 1. > ; 2. > ; 3. > ; 4. = ; 5. =
Activity 5: 1. £10 ; 2. £9 ; 3. 20% of £50 = £10, 15% of £80 = £12; the greater saving is £12 ; 4. 12 pupils ; 5. 42 notebooks
