Conversions Fractions, decimals and percentages are different ways of representing the same value. We’ve already practiced converting between fractions and decimals. Can you remember the rules? Fractions to Decimals Divide the numerator by the denominator Decimals to Fractions Place the decimal over the appropriate power of 10 and simplify

Conversions Fractions Percentages Percentages Fractions Multiply the fraction by 100 Simplify and add a % sign You can also try and cross cancel at this stage to make the calculation easier Remove the % sign and place the number over the appropriate power of 10 Simplify
