Percentages

Percent means per hundred. Convert to decimals or fractions when that makes the calculation easier.

Key ideas

  • fraction-decimal-percent conversion
  • percentage of quantity
  • percentage increase/decrease introduction
  • discounts
  • comparison

Formula / rule: p% of A = p/100 × A.

Worked example: 15% of 80 = 0.15×80 = 12.

Common trap: A 20% discount means you pay 80%, not 20%.

Key words

percent — per hundred
percentage — proportion out of 100
discount — amount removed from price
increase — amount added
equivalent — same value
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.
