Colourful Equivalences (A) WORKSHEET

Once learners are comfortable with fraction, decimal and percentage equivalence of quarters, one-half, tenths and hundredths, use this fun and engaging worksheet to enable students to recognise these equivalences fluently.

In section A, students are tasked with finding 3 equivalences out of a possible 6 fractions, decimals and percentages. The fractions, decimals and percentages in each question are designed to draw out misconceptions such as 0.9 = 9% and 40% = ¹⁄₄₀.

Section B allows learners to create their own questions. Students can get creative by thinking of possible misconceptions and making questions harder. Why not encourage learners to swap and try with each other?
