Express One Number as a Percentage of Another WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

This worksheet is designed to help students master the concept of expressing one number as a percentage of another using two distinct methods. In Section A, students will explore how to express one number as a percentage of another by converting the numbers into equivalent fractions. This approach reinforces their understanding of the relationship between fractions and percentages.

In Section B, students will learn to multiply fractions by 100, both with and without the use of a calculator, to find the percentage.

After practiscing each method separately, learners will be challenged to choose the most efficient method for solving a set of 8 questions.

Finally, in Section D, students will encounter 4 worded questions that require them to apply the methods they've learned in real-world scenarios.
