1. PERCENTS – DECIMALS - FRACTIONS

2. PERCENT  DECIMAL 1. Write a decimal point at the end of the number. 2. Move the decimal point 2 places to the LEFT 3. Drop the % sign Example: Change 32% to a decimal 32% =.32

3. PERCENT  FRACTION 1. Drop the percent sign. 2. Write the percent over 100 3. Simplify (if you can) Example: Change 87% to a fraction 87 % = 87 100

4. DECIMAL  PERCENT 1. Move the decimal point 2 places to the RIGHT 2. Add the % sign 3. If there are no more digits behind the decimal point, you can drop it Example: Change.45 to a percent 45 = 45%

5. DECIMAL  FRACTION 1. Consider the digits of the decimal and the place values it stops at 2. Write digits over the place value Example: Change 0.254 to a fraction 0.254  the digits are 254 the place value is 1000ths = 254 1000 *decimals read the same as the fraction 0.254 = two hundred and fifty four thousandths 254/1000 = two hundred and fifty four thousandths

6. FRACTION  DECIMAL 1. Divide the numerator by the denominator, add a decimal point and 2, or more (if necessary), zeros to the numerator 2. The quotient is your decimal Example: 3 = 0.75 4 0.75 4 3.00 -28 20 - 20 0

7. FRACTION  PERCENT 1. Divide the numerator by the denominator, add a decimal point and 2, or more (if necessary), zeros to the numerator 2. The quotient is your decimal 3. Convert the decimal to a percent by moving the decimal point 2 places to the left. Example: 2 = 0.40 = 40% 5 0.40 5 2.00 -20 20 0 -0 0
