Decimals and Percentages

Percent means per hundred. Convert among common fractions, decimals and percentages to compare values.

Key ideas

  • decimal place value
  • fraction-decimal links
  • percentages
  • percentage of quantity
  • money contexts

Formula / rule: Percentage of amount = percentage ÷ 100 × amount.

Worked example: 25% = 0.25 = 1/4.

Common trap: 5% is 0.05, not 0.5.

Key words

percent — per hundred
decimal — base-ten fraction notation
equivalent — same value
discount — amount taken off a price
percentage — proportion out of 100
How to use this drill: review the short notes when learning, then close them on later attempts and practise from memory. The rotating bank delays a full set repeat for 30 attempts on the same browser.
